LIVERPOOL CAPTAIN STEVEN Gerrard is close to agreeing an 18-month contract with Major League Soccer team the Los Angeles Galaxy, according to the BBC.
Gerrard, 34, announced on Friday that he is to leave Liverpool at the end of the season after a 25-year association with the club and subsequently revealed that he will move to the United States.
The report said that the former England captain would sign a contract worth around €7.6 million (£6 million) in full — with Gerrard likely to earn €5m-a-year (£4m).

A move to the Galaxy would reunite Gerrard with his old Liverpool team-mate Robbie Keane, who earns €3.8m (£3m) annually, and see him follow in the footsteps of former England colleague David Beckham, who spent five years at the California club.
