Steven Gerrard Joins Saudi Arabia Influx To Take Charge Of Al-Ettifaq
Former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard is the latest star name to make the move to Saudi Arabia after signing a deal to become head coach of Al-Ettifaq. The 43-year-old has been out of the game since being sacked by Aston Villa in October. Gerrard had previously said he had turned down an offer to head to the Gulf state, but has now been lured by the riches on offer. "Where legends are found. We're thrilled to announce Steven Gerrard is our new head coach," the club said in a post on Twitter. Al-Ettifaq finished seventh out of 16 clubs in the Saudi Pro League last season.
