While Klopp earns 18 million at Liverpool, Gerrard's unbelievable salary in Arabia

The Saudi sheikhs not only want big-name players, they also want to recruit prestigious coaches. This is the case of Steven Gerrard, who has received an offer to coach Al-Ettifaq, according to Reuters. In fact, the Reds legend has already travelled to Saudi Arabia and will shortly be announced as the team's new coach.

After an endearing love affair with Liverpool, Steven Gerrard arrived at Los Angeles Galaxy. In mid-2015, he was released by the Reds after 17 seasons and took his talents to MLS. Prior to his retirement, he spent a year and a half in LA. He scored five goals and dished out 15 assists in 39 games.

Now this will be his third managerial experience after managing Rangers in Scotland and Aston Villa, but now he will have another chance to prove his quality in the dugout as well with the hope that he will eventually become Liverpool manager after German coach Jurgen Klopp's tenure is over.

The salary

Sources have indicated that Jurgen Klopp is on a salary of 18 million a year at Liverpool, while Steven Gerrard at his new club in Arabia could be on 20 million, according to reports from Arabia, which is what convinced him to sign.
