It may not be the Anfield dugout, but Steven Gerrard’s latest outing in Liverpool colours is still grabbing plenty of attention from supporters.
The club legend has appeared in Liverpool’s new official Christmas campaign, a move that feels perfectly timed following his decision to decline Rangers’ recent managerial approach.
Gerrard back in red once more
A short clip shared by @LFCRetail on X shows Gerrard walking down a corridor toward a Christmas tree, carrying a child dressed in a Liverpool kit with his iconic No.8.
It’s brief and understated, but seeing him featured again has already sparked a wave of nostalgia among fans.
The video ties into the launch of Liverpool FC’s Christmas Shop, which also includes appearances from current stars such as Virgil van Dijk, Fuka Nagano and Florian Wirtz.
Still, Gerrard stands out — especially given his long-running Adidas partnership and the fact he’s currently out of management.
His decision to turn down what many called an “emotional offer” from Rangers, choosing instead to wait for the “right project”, only adds fuel to the speculation.
Whispers of a future Liverpool role grow louder
That rejection, combined with his appearance in official club content, will naturally reopen discussions about whether the former No.8 could eventually return to Anfield in some capacity.
In a recent chat with Rio Ferdinand, Gerrard admitted his “respect for Liverpool has only grown” since retirement, speaking openly about the support, outreach and invitations he still receives from senior club figures.
Moments like this Christmas cameo only strengthen that bond.
Whether it’s just a festive feature or a hint at something more down the line, Gerrard’s presence is a reminder that Liverpool and their icons remain forever connected. And after a difficult few weeks, perhaps this nostalgic moment was exactly what fans needed.
