Steven Gerrard seems to be on his way back to Liverpool
But it appears his future could be back at Liverpool and in a coaching position.
According to Goal.com, former Reds captain Gerrard has been speaking with the club about working alongside Academy director Alex Inglethorpe.
It is claimed Gerrard wants a meaningful role at Liverpool rather than just a symbolic gesture.
Gerrard is understood to be keen to make a 'substantial contribution' for the club he played 710 times for.
Celtic have been linked with a move for Gerrard, which would see him reunite with former boss Brendan Rodgers and team-mate Kolo Toure.

"The only thing I would say with regards to Steven, he has been an incredible player. I had him for a number of years at Liverpool and he was absolutely brilliant with me.
