Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard is being considered as the new head coach of Burnley should Scott Parker step down. According to journalist Alan Nixon, the club's management is eyeing the 45-year-old tactician in the wake of a disappointing season that ended in relegation from the Premier League.
A final decision on Parker’s future has yet to be made, with discussions ongoing within the club. Reports indicate that Gerrard is interested in returning to coaching. His last managerial stint was with Saudi side Al-Ettifaq, a post he left in January 2025. Previously, he was at the helm of both Rangers and Aston Villa.
To recap, Burnley officially lost their chance to stay in the Premier League after a 0-1 defeat to Manchester City. This marks the club's third relegation from the top flight in recent years, and the board faces the urgent challenge of guiding the team back to the Premier League as soon as possible.
