Steven Gerrard was appointed coach of the Saudi Arabian club Ettifaq FC, what's interesting is that he was given a pretty tempting offer, even though the nominal salary was not stated, but I believe that as an Arab club that wants to compete with top-tier clubs the salary offered will be quite high considering their record. Gerrard's footsteps in European history. Like Al Nass and Al Hillal, of course Gerrard is required to be able to bring his team to the top of the standings because last season Ettifaq FC was only able to finish in 7th place. According to MEMO, Gerrard position is still in the final discussion stage. If he accepts the offer, I think Ettifaq FC can still finish in the top 5.
Steven Gerrard will now join Nuno Espirito Santo and Jorge Jesus in the bubbling Saudi Professional League. This set of coaches will bring the European experience to the league and we might start seeing the impact from this season. Gerrard is a football legend with a whole lot of experience that will benefit the players of Ettifaq FC. But his last coaching job in the English Premier League with Aston Villa didn't end well because he was sacked due to poor performance.
For them to compete with top teams like Al Nassr and Al-Ittihad, Gerrard has to come up with sound coaching strategies and ensure he maximizes the players at his disposal. His influence and good relationship with his former players might lead to the signing of some players from the English or the Scottish league because he needs to rebuild the team. He might be able to replicate his performance in Rangers.
