Ex-Liverpool star Vladimir Smicer has advised Steven Gerrard to restart his managerial career at Wrexham or Birmingham, seeing them as ideal stepping stones towards eventually managing Liverpool. Gerrard has been out of work since leaving Al-Ettifaq in January.
Smicer told Boyle Sports that Gerrard needs a strong, ambitious project to rebuild credibility before eyeing Anfield. Both Championship sides face off this Friday, with speculation swirling around Gerrard as pressure mounts on Rangers boss Russell Martin, another club linked to him.
