Redknapp: Gerrard will be ready to succeed Klopp in the Anfield dugout

Former Liverpool midfielder Jamie Redknapp has claimed that Steven Gerrard will be ready to succeed Jurgen Klopp in the Anfield dugout.

"I wasn't sure if Stevie would go into management,” Redknapp told The Lockdown Tactics podcast.

“It's a bit like Frank Lampard. They've both had great careers, won everything, and I could see them just doing punditry, take the easy option. But they haven't, they've gone it at the sharp end.

“Stevie is in Scotland and doing well. Yet, it's not easy because Celtic are so strong. But Stevie has got it, you can see that. I think a few years at Rangers, and as long as he doesn't make too many mistakes, it's only a question of time before he manages Liverpool when Jurgen Klopp decides to go.”
