Steven Gerrard returns to Liverpool as a coach
Steven Gerrard has returned to Liverpool as an academy coach
- The Liverpool legend retired as a stint with LA Galaxy in late 2016
Steven Gerrard has finally returned to boyhood club Liverpool after months of speculation joining the academy as a coach.
The
36-year-old held advanced talks with the Reds in November 2016 over
helping shape their future generation as he takes steps towards
management.
Gerrard, who has been working
towards his UEFA ‘A’ licence, will begin his duties in February. It will
be in a floating role initially, with the chance to oversee an age group to be examined further down the line.
The former England captain signed
up to Liverpool’s youth structure as an eight-year-old in 1987 before
going on to captain the club, lift its fifth European Cup, and earn his
status alongside their pre-eminent greats.
