Thank you legend, he won everything with Liverpool but will finally go to Arabia, not Firmino

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard will become the new manager of Saudi Arabian club Al Ettifaq after reaching an agreement, Saudi sports media Arriyadiyah reported, following weeks of rumours about his arrival in Saudi Arabia. "Al Ettifaq club reaches a final agreement with Englishman Steven Gerrard to coach the football team next season," the media outlet said.

It said the signing "will take place in the next few days", without giving further details on how much he will receive from the Damman-based club in eastern Saudi Arabia, where he was spotted earlier this month. The 43-year-old former England captain was sacked by Aston Villa last October and has not coached a team since.
