Arne Slot’s successor has now been identified — and it’s someone nobody saw coming.

Arne Slot’s successor has now been identified — and it’s someone nobody saw coming.

A short clip shared online shows Steven Gerrard strolling calmly down a hallway toward a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, holding a young child dressed in a Liverpool kit with his iconic No. 8 on the back.

The video is brief and understated, but for Liverpool fans, even a glimpse of Gerrard in club colours is enough to trigger waves of nostalgia from his legendary Anfield career.

The clip is part of Liverpool FC’s official Christmas Shop launch on Liverpoolfc.com, which also features current stars like Virgil van Dijk, Fuka Nagano, and Florian Wirtz.

Still, Gerrard’s appearance has completely overshadowed everyone else. His involvement feels especially symbolic given his long-time Adidas partnership and the fact that he’s currently without a club.

Supporters also remember that Gerrard recently declined an emotional offer to return to Rangers, saying he wouldn’t rush into a job and would wait for the “right project.” That only fueled speculation that he may be keeping the door open for something at Liverpool.

Naturally, talk of a future role at Anfield has resurfaced. His patience, combined with this unexpected feature in a Liverpool promotional video, has intensified the discussion.

In a recent chat with Rio Ferdinand, Gerrard admitted his love and respect for Liverpool has only grown since retirement. He even revealed that senior figures at the club have kept in touch, something he said “blew his mind.”

This Christmas video reinforces that deep connection. Whether it’s just a festive appearance or a subtle hint at something bigger, it’s a reminder that legends like Gerrard never truly drift away from Liverpool.

At a time when emotions around the club are running high, seeing him involved again offers fans a welcome sense of comfort and connection.
