Aston Villa wants Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard to coach

Glasgow Rangers coach Steven Gerrard is, according to information from SPOX and GOAL at Aston Villa the first choice for the vacant coaching position.

The sixteenth of the Premier League had recently parted ways with Dean Smith after a disappointing start to the season.

During the international break, the Villans could approach the Rangers with an official request, as the new coach should, in the best case, take over for the next league game on November 20.

Gerrard still has a contract in Scotland until 2024, so a sum of almost three million euros would be due. The 41-year-old should be open to an offer from the Premier League at any time.

In addition to Gerrard, Ralph Hasenhüttl, Roberto Martinez, Graham Potter and, with outsider opportunities, John Terry are also under discussion at Aston Villa.
