I've heard the gerrard and henderson to rangers rumours but i'm not convinced

GERRARD IS SAID TO BE BRINGING HENDERSON TO IBROX WITH HIM BUT OUR MAN'S NOT CONVINCED IT'S A DONE DEAL 20:22, 20 May 2025Updated 20:33, 20 May 2025 Steven Gerrard on the brink of

Rangers return - but not cut and dried yet! | Hotline Live The whispers Steven Gerrard could return to Rangers have grown in volume to deafening shouts – but our man Keith Jackson has reason

to believe it's not as close as is being presented. Social media has been awash with rumours and reports that the former Ibrox boss is on the verge of a second spell and, while fans

seem split on the idea of going back, he ticks a lot of boxes. His box office name likely holds an appeal to the new San Francisco 49ers-backed owners and the fact he's won the league

with Rangers already puts him in a distinct column of his own in that regard. There are even reports that former Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson could be joining him in a player-coach

capacity. Fan concerns however come from Gerrard's dismal record since he left Ibrox for Aston Villa, failing both at Villa Park and with Al-Ettifaq in Saudi Arabia. He and his family

are still based in the Middle East and _RECORD SPORT_ broke exclusive story earlier today that this could be a factor in whether he does come back for a second crack at the whip. Speaking on

tonight's Hotline Live, our man Keith Jackson says he's heard the whispers loud and clear and at one point believed they may be on the money. But now? Not so much. He said:

"Let's not beat around the bush. Over the course of the last 24 48 hours, the momentum behind Steven Gerrard has grown and grown. The noise has become deafening. "I think

there's even suggestions that his backroom team is selected, that Steven Davis will be joining him as number two and that Jordan Henderson has agreed to move from Ajax to take up a

player/coach capacity. "There's even suggestions doing the rounds that this appointment could be made at Ibrox tomorrow. "I've got to be honest. About an hour ago I was

coming to the conclusion that this sounds right. But other information has since come to light, I'm now less than convinced." The information Keith was referring to, and went to

elaborate on, was the story _RECORD SPORT_ broke just as Hotline Live was going on air at 6pm. Article continues below We understand that it's not over the line just yet and one of the

primary reasons for that is Gerrard's family. We understand they are settled in the Middle East and that Gerrard would first have to convince his wife Alex to up sticks from their

£10,000 a month mansion in Bahrain for a return to Glasgow. The pair had previously discussed a possible move to the United Arab Emirates and the couple’s favourite holiday resort of Dubai,

and it remains to be seen if a move back to the UK would appeal. _TUNE IN TO HOTLINE LIVE EVERY SUNDAY TO THURSDAY AND HAVE YOUR SAY ON THE BIGGEST ISSUES IN SCOTTISH FOOTBALL AND LISTEN TO
