Jamie Carragher has tipped his former teammate Steven Gerrard to eventually replace Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool boss.
Gerrard is a Reds icon after playing 707 times in a 17-year spell with the club that saw him lead them to that memorable Champions League triumph in 2005.
The 39-year-old has been manager of Scottish side Rangers since the beginning of last season, and Carragher thinks that will provide the right stepping stone for the former England star's eventual return to the club.
Speaking to the Liverpool Echo, Carragher said: "Why not? There will be a clamour for probably a lot of people I think whenever Jurgen Klopp decides his time is up at Liverpool but hopefully that's a long way away.
"There's no doubt Steven Gerrard will come into that because of the job he's doing at Rangers but also because he's a Liverpool legend.
"He's doing a fantastic job at Rangers so that will certainly help him."
Klopp has been in charge of Liverpool since 2015 and he won his first piece of silverware with the club last season when he led them to another Champions League title.
