Steven Gerrard will not be joining Melbourne Victory, the Australian A-League side's manager Kevin Muscat has said.
Gerrard has been linked with a host of clubs following his exit from MLS side LA Galaxy last week, including a sensational return to Liverpool in a coaching capacity.
However, latest reports claim a move back to Anfield will not happen until next season, and that he could instead move Down Under to join Victory in a short-term deal.
But Muscat - a former Crystal Palace and Millwall defender - insists there is "no chance" of that happening.
