Steven George Gerrard MBE (born 30 May 1980) is an English professional football manager and former player who manages Scottish Premiership club Rangers.
He spent the majority of his playing career as a central midfielder for Liverpool, with most of that time spent as club captain, as well as captaining the England national team. Widely regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of all time,
Gerrard was awarded the UEFA Club Footballer of the Year award in 2005, and the Ballon d'Or Bronze Award. In 2009, Zinedine Zidane and Pelé said that they considered Gerrard to be the best footballer in the world.
Leon Balogun is set for a surprise Rangers return after being drafted in as cover for crocked kid Leon King. The Ibrox outfit announced the teenage centre-back had suffered a serious injury blow during their pre-season camp in Germany.
And with the Scotland Under-21 ace facing a “significant” lay-off, boss Michael Beale has turned to Balogun as he looks to beef up his rear-guard options.
The 35-year-old Nigeria international played a significant role for Steven Gerrard’s Light Blues as they lifted the Premiership title in 2021 and was also key as Gers marched all the way to the final of the Europa League a year later under Gio van Bronckhorst.
He quit Ibrox that summer as he was reunited with Gerrard’s former No.2 Beale at QPR and is now set to follow his former Loftus Road boss back to Glasgow. Record Sport understands Balogun - a free agent after the expiry of his one-year Rs deal - was back in the city yesterday for medical tests.
