Steven Gerrard Set To Leave Liverpool At The End Of The Season.




Steven Gerrard will announce on Friday that he is ending his 26-year association with Liverpool at the end of the season.

Gerrard has enjoyed a brilliant career at Anfield. The Premier League title has eluded him, but he inspired Liverpool to their incredible Champions League final comeback win against AC Milan in 2005.
Relations between the captain and Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers have improved in recent months, but the midfielder will insist on Friday that his decision to quit is in the best interests of his career.
Rodgers had suggested Gerrard would finish his career as a central defender at Anfield, but his view has changed recently.
Instead, the player was warned he will no longer feature in every game and the club offered him a new package on different terms for 2015-16.

LA Galaxy, who signed David Beckham in 2007, are among a number of clubs interested in signing Gerrard this summer. New York Red Bulls, who employ former Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier as their sporting director, are also in the hunt.
