Gerrard hints Liverpool coaching role post retirement

Former Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has hinted that he will probably make his return to the Anfield to pursue his coaching career by later this year.

Gerrard, who had captained Liverpool for 12 years before his departure, revealed that the current year could be his last season as a player.

"I'm not 100 percent sure, but I think it will probably be my last year as a player," the 35-year-old stalwart was quoted as saying by goal.com.

" I am always going to be biased towards Liverpool and the FA and basically when I am back home I am going to carry on with my punditry work and try and move around clubs and gain more experience, going to watch managers and learning more," he added.

The veteran midfielder ended his long association with the club, where he joined at the age of nine, by moving to the American club Los Angeles Galaxy.

Gerrard will once again put on Liverpool's jersey when he represent club's legend side in a match against a team of Australian counterparts on January 7.
