Embarking on his next career move having departed LA Galaxy this week, Ray Parlour has suggested Rafael Benitez’s Newcastle United should make a move for Steven Gerrard, report HITC.
Speaking to talkSPORT’s Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast Show this morning, the Arsenal legend believes Benitez should pursue a reunion with 36-year-old Gerrard, whether it be as a player or in a coaching capacity.
Former England international Parlour claimed: “Would he join Newcastle as a coach, under Rafael Benitez?
Managing Gerrard in his own six-year association as Liverpool manager, Benitez must be someone the midfielder admires greatly and with the Magpies looking for an immediate Premier League return, Gerrard would bring plenty of experience.
