Steven Gerrard is not looking to manage Liverpool anytime soon and believes Jurgen Klopp can deliver a first Premier League title at Anfield.

Gerrard is earning his stripes with Rangers, sitting third in the Scottish Premiership having most recently run out 7-1 winners over Motherwell.

The former Reds captain has made no secret of his desire to one day sit in the Anfield hotseat but is fully committed to Rangers for the foreseeable future.

"Anything is possible," he told the Guardian. "Do I want to be the Liverpool manager right now? No, I want to be the Rangers manager. I want to be successful at Rangers.

"It's a silly question if you ask do I want to be Liverpool manager one day. I think everyone on the planet knows the answer to that. But I love Jurgen Klopp and I believe he can help Liverpool win the Premier League.

"I know what it will mean to the fans because they suffered so much in 2014. So we're in a great place – and I say 'we' because I'm a fan and always will be.

"But I've got two teams in my heart now. Rangers and Liverpool."
