Steven Gerrard offered shock return to management abroad as club rivals Leicester City and Leeds for legend | The Sun

STEVEN GERRARD has been offered a return to management by Saudi Arabian side Al-Ettifaq, according to reports.

The Liverpool legend has been out of work since leaving Aston Villa in October.

Gerrard, 43, has worked as a pundit for BT Sport this season but now appears ready to get back into management.

And he is considering the offer put to him by Al-Ettifaq, according to L'Equipe.

The Saudi Arabian league has pushed to make high profile incoming this season with Karim Benzema joining Al-Ittihad, possibly to be joined by Chelsea star N'Golo Kante.

Gerrard could also be swayed by a lucrative offer, though he still has options in the UK to choose from.
