Situation with 'Rangers'

Gerrard, who is 45 years old, has become a clear favorite to succeed Russell Martin as head coach of 'Rangers'.

Martin was dismissed on Sunday after a poor tenure lasting 123 days.

Club chairman Andrew Cavanagh decided to part ways with the former 'Southampton' coach just hours after a 1:1 draw with 'Falkirk'.

Martin's departure came amid pressure from fans due to a bad start to the season, with only five wins out of 17 matches.

Former 'Rangers' coach Gerrard quickly became one of the main candidates for this vacant position and is already a favorite with bookmakers.

An important meeting between the Liverpool legend and the club's leaders Cavanagh and Parag Marathe in London will take place on Thursday to discuss his potential return to the 'Ibrox' bench.

Gerrard has been out of work since leaving Saudi club 'Al-Ettifaq' earlier this year.

He led 'Rangers' to the Scottish Premier League title in 2021 before moving to a coaching position at 'Aston Villa'.

Now, four years later, Gerrard will discuss his options for returning to the club.

SunSport reported that Gerrard plans to hold these negotiations in the British capital.

Prospects of return

Ahead of important negotiations, encouraging information has emerged.

Fabrizio Romano noted that Gerrard's return to 'Rangers' is 'closer than ever', and negotiations are 'progressing well'.

He also reported that 'Rangers' are 'quite confident about the possibility of Steven's (Gerrard) return'.

The Liverpool legend and England international appeared on Rio Ferdinand's program earlier this week.

Gerrard spoke about his 'unfinished business' in his coaching career. He stated that he is 'working on' his return and has a desire to lead a team that is fighting for victory.
Gerrard told Ferdinand: 'I want to be in a team that will compete because I believe that suits me more.'
'I think certain jobs and certain clubs suit my style and the way I like to work.'
'But I also have time, and I am not in a hurry, as I know the right people who can make me a stronger and better coach.'
'These are the people I need to find because if I find the right team, I know I can be a successful coach.'
'And that is what I am working on right now.'
