For a long time, many people talked about Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard wanting to take over for Jürgen Klopp on the day the German manager had to decide to move on. – But that was while he led Rangers to league gold in Scotland over the eternal one Celtic.

Then in November 2021 he landed the job as manager of the Premier League club Aston Villa. – Barely a year later he was sacked and at the same time a much longer road to the reins at Anfield. It was a setback that proved to many that Steven Gerrard was not ready for the world’s biggest and toughest league.

The Turkish newspaper Karar reports today that Steven Gerrard is very close to landing a job at Trabzonspor. – The Turkish club is the reigning Super Lig champion and is not satisfied with the sixth place they now hold.

Steven Gerrard was linked with taking over as Poland boss but that fell through, with the 42-year-old traveling to Istanbul this week to meet Trabzonspor presidential candidate Ertugrul Dogan, who has promised to appoint the ex-Ibrox boss if he wins the upcoming election.

Trabzonspor are currently sixth in the Turkish Super League after winning it last year, but have big ambitions to be a club to be reckoned with in the Champions League in the future.
