Al-Ettifaq haven’t won their last NINE matches in a row – a run of form which many expected would lead to the sacking of Gerrard.
But the club have stunningly offered the 43-year-old a new two-year deal, which he’s gladly accepted.
That’s according to The Athletic, who claim the former England midfielder’s new deal with Al-Ettifaq will expire in the summer of 2027.
