Steven Gerrard has admitted that he has regrets not playing for Rangers or Celtic in the Old Firm derby before ending his on-field career.
Gerrard left Rangers to succeed Dean Smith at Aston Villa in November after spending three years as manager of the Scottish side. Despite overseeing Rangers’ first Scottish Premiership title win in 10 years to end Celtic’s domination of the league in the 2020/21 season, the former Liverpool midfielder was greeted with backlash from Gers fans.
The role was Gerrard’s first major one after he entered coaching with Liverpool following his retirement in 2016. The 41-year-old called time on his career after spending the 2015/16 campaign at LA Galaxy in MLS.
