After retiring from football, Gerrard worked as a coach in the Liverpool development system and led the club's under-18 squad in 2017-18 before taking over as manager of Scottish Premiership club Rangers in 2018-19. He is currently acting as an assistant to Kenny Dalglish at Scottish Championship side Greenock Morton.
Gerrard has been praised for his work with young players during his time at Liverpool, and he has also received criticism from some fans for becoming involved in managerial disputes at Ibrox and LA Galaxy. However, he has never lost a game in charge and remains one of the most successful coaches in British football history.
He signed a two-year contract with Rangers in June 2019 after agreeing a deal with the club earlier that month. The contract will see him remain at Ibrox until at least the summer of 2020.
Gerrard was born on January 4, 1984 in West Derby, Liverpool. He is only the second player from Merseyside to have their number 8 retired by Liverpool, following in the footsteps of Phil Neal who had his number 5 taken up by the club in 1979. Gerrard made his senior debut for Liverpool against Wimbledon in the First Division on April 16, 2003, when he came on as a 67th-minute substitute for Peter Crouch.
Former Liverpool FC and England captain Steven Gerrard was one of the club's all-time greats. He retired from playing after leaving LFC for the LA Galaxy at the end of the 2014-15 season. In early 2017, he returned to Liverpool as a coach with the club's minor teams before taking over as manager of Glasgow Rangers. His coaching career has been successful so far; he has won two Scottish Premiership titles and one Scottish Cup.
In addition to his achievements as a player, he is also considered one of the best players in the world during his retirement because of his ability to control the game from the centre-forward position.
Gerrard was born on August 4th, 1975 in Bromborough, South Liverpool. He is the son of Peggy, a nurse, and Gerry, who worked in construction. He has two siblings: a brother, Paul, and a sister, Nicola. His parents were Irish Catholics who moved to Liverpool when he was 10 years old. They settled in an area then known as New Brighton where Gerrard grew up.
When he was 11 years old, Gerrard started training with Liverpool F.C., the local team, and signed a professional contract with the club after finishing school. He made his first-team debut in the 1994-95 season at the age of 17. That year, he helped the team win the UEFA Champions League final against Milan AC.

In 2003, he was awarded the European Golden Shoe for scoring more goals than any other midfielder in Europe at the time.
Gerrard's father died when he was eight years old, and his mother later married an alcoholic who regularly beat him up.
