Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard wants to become a manager of «reds».

Gerrard said to Skysports: «I am planning on doing my badges and qualifications over the next 12 months. I definitely see myself as a manager rather than a coach, but that could change.

The dream come true would be to manage Liverpool. There are world-class managers there ready already but we’ll have to wait and see, it would be the icing on the cake.

I remember speaking to Jamie Carragher and he really fancied it but he’s decided media is what he wants to do. It is strange seeing him on Sky but I’m really delighted he’s doing it. He can leave managing Liverpool to me!»
