Steven Gerrard has agreed a contract extension that could see him remain as manager of the Saudi Pro League club Al Ettifaq until at least 2027.

The former Rangers and Aston Villa coach moved to Saudi Arabia on a two-year deal in the summer after initially turning down the role.

But it has been a challenging start for Gerrard whose team are currently eighth in the table 28 points behind leaders Al-Hilal, having not win a game since October.

And just this week, captain and fellow summer arrival from England, midfielder Jordan Henderson, quit the club to join Dutch giants Ajax after playing just 19 games for Ettifaq.
