Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard is said to be in trouble at Al-Ettifaq in Saudi Arabia.

The former Rangers and Aston Villa manager is struggling to impress in the Saudi Pro League.

The Guardian states that only Gerrard's reputation as a player is saving him from the sack.

His side have one win in the past 12 matches, having won five of their first seven this season.

Another ex-Liverpool captain, Jordan Henderson, is unhappy at the club and wants to leave.

He is said to be eager to move back to the Premier League in the coming weeks.
