Steven Gerrard has left his post as manager of Saudi Pro League side Al Ettifaq after 18 months with the team struggling in the bottom half of the table.

Liverpool midfielder endured a tricky time at the Asian club and parted company today, avoiding the impending back-to-back sacking.

Steven Gerrard is set to leave his role as head coach of Saudi Arabian club Al Ettifaq. The 44-year-old had signed a new two-and-a-half-year deal at Al Ettifaq in January 2024 through to June 2027 but he is set to leave after one win in four matches since the season resumed following the winter break.
