Gerrard lined up for Reds return if Klopp leaves
Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard is being closely monitored with Jurgen Klopp reportedly tempted by the Germany job.
Steven Gerrard may soon return to Anfield but as manager to replace Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, according to The Mirror.
Liverpool reportedly expect Klopp to take up an opportunity with Germany in the near future amid doubts over long-time head coach Joachim Low.
As a result, Liverpool legend Gerrard has been sounded out as he has Rangers on a cusp of a drought-breaking league title in Scotland.
Gerrard, who made more than 700 appearances for Liverpool, took control of Rangers in 2018.
