Rangers job too good to turn down for Liverpool legend Gerrard

As he prepares to leave his role at the Anfield academy after only one season, the ex-England captain says an Ibrox post was too big an opportunity

As he prepares to make his first move into senior management, Liverpool icon Steven Gerrard says the position at Rangers was too good a chance to pass up.

Gerrard will officially take over at Ibrox from June 1, having signed a four-year deal earlier this month.

The former England captain will leave his role at Liverpool's academy after only one season, but explained that when Rangers came calling he could not say no to the opportunity.
