Kelly made his England Under-21 debut against Uzbekistan in August
Liverpool defender Martin Kelly and striker Daniel Pacheco have signed contract extensions to keep them at Anfield until 2014.
Home-grown 20-year-old Kelly, who made an impressive full Premier League debut in November's 2-0 win over Chelsea, has added another three years to his deal.
Pacheco, 19, who had been linked with a move to Real Sociedad in the summer, has extended his contract by two years.
The Spaniard was top-scorer at the 2010 Under-19 European Championship.
Kelly, who can also operate at centre-back, may find himself called upon more regularly over the next three months as Liverpool seek cover for injured captain Jamie Carragher.
Kelly impressed during a brief period on loan at Huddersfield in 2009.
Pacheco, whose appearance in Thursday's 1-1 Europa League draw against Steaua Bucharest was his first since September's Carling Cup defeat on penalties to Northampton, has struggled to force his way into manager Roy Hodgson's thoughts.
His only Premier League appearance so far this season was as an 86th-minute substitute against Manchester City in August.
He is yet to score in 13 appearances for the Reds.
