STEVEN GERRARD has broken his silence on reports linking him with the vacant Rangers manager job.
Gerrard is the overwhelming favourite to replace Graeme Murty, who was sacked by Rangers this morning.
Reports this evening claim the Liverpool legend has agreed a three-year deal to take over at Ibrox.
Gerrard was working as a pundit for BT Sport’s coverage of the Champions League semi-final second-leg between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich tonight.
And he was asked what the latest was on his talks with Rangers.
“Yeah there’s truth in the rumours," Gerrard said.
"I’ve held initial talks with Rangers and the plan is to pick them up in a couple of days time. We’ll see (if it happens).
"Yeah there is (an interest), as I said I’ve held positive talks with them.
"The plan, obviously I’m busy for a couple of days now, but I’ll pick it up on Thursday and see if I can progress it."
If Gerrard were to accept the Rangers job, it would be his first venture into senior management.
The former midfielder’s only experience so far is as boss of the Liverpool under-18s.
