Steven Gerrard is keeping his options open as he ponders the question of whether to retire and step into a coaching role or keep playing for another season.

The former Liverpool captain’s curren contract with MLS side L.A Galaxy expires in December and he does not know whether he will be asked to stay on.

‘Physically I could play in the MLS for this season and next, 100 per cent for sure,’ he told men’s fashion brand MR PORTER.

‘Am I going to do that? Do I want to do that? Am I going to be offered the chance to do that? I don’t know, we’ll have to wait and see.

‘I’m at a little bit at a crossroads at the moment, what to do, whether to call it a day at the end of the season, or whether maybe to do one more, but we’ll have to wait and see.

‘The season finishes here in November; maybe some football offers might come my way, maybe some coaching roles will come my way.

‘I’m doing my coaching badges and I’m on my A licence as we speak.
‘Hopefully I’m going to be in a position to consider some offers very seriously come Christmas.’
