Former midfielder "red" Xabi Alonso predicts his ex-clubmate Stephen Gerrard great success in the coaching field.

Last summer, the former captain of Liverpool led the youth team of the "red" (U-18), which this season has never felt the taste of defeat.

Gerrard successfully works with his players, which could not fail to mention Khabi Alonso, who believes in the coaching talent of his ex-captain.

"I closely follow the steps of Stephen at an early stage of his coaching career," - quotes Alonso Liverpool official website.

"I'm sure he has everything in order to one day become a great coach for Liverpool".

"Naturally, the presence in the team of a person with this experience will benefit the youth of the" red ". Not every great player becomes a great coach, but Stephen's success already convinces him that he can turn into a serious specialist, "said Habi.

Alonso and Gerrard performed together for Liverpool from 2004 to 2009.

Earlier, Stephen expressed support for the head coach of the "red" Jurgen Klopp.
