Rangers' shareholder Dave King had expressed his support for Gerrard to become the new manager. King believes Gerrard would be a great fit for the club and would help restore Rangers to its former glory. However, Gerrard's family concerns have led him to reconsider his options.
Some speculated that Gerrard might return to Liverpool, where he could work as assistant manager under Arne Slot. However, Gerrard's current happiness in Saudi Arabia makes a return to England uncertain. He is enjoying life after leaving Al-Etifaq and is not eager to leave.
Other candidates, such as Davide Ancelotti and Russell Martin, are now being considered for the Rangers manager position. Gerrard may still be interested in returning to management, but not in Glasgow. It's unclear when or if he will pursue another managerial opportunity.
