Steven Gerrard Explains Decision To Reject Rangers Return

He says a rushed timeline with family commitments left him short of 100% readiness.

Overview

  • Speaking to TNT Sports, Gerrard said he came "very close" after positive talks with the club’s owners.
  • He described the decision window as rushed while his family were in Bahrain, prompting him to step aside.
  • He added that due diligence raised uncertainties and he would not take the job unless he felt completely ready.
  • Rangers have since appointed Danny Rohl following Russell Martin’s sacking earlier in October.
  • Gerrard said he will watch "as a fan from afar" and left open the possibility of returning at a later date.
