LA Galaxy boss confirms Gerrard signing

Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard will join LA Galaxy in the summer, the MLS side's coach Bruce Arena has confirmed. The reigning MLS champions have announced that the Liverpool legend will follow in the footsteps of David Beckham and Robbie Keane.

“Steven Gerrard arrives in July and by then we will certainly have a plan available,” Galaxy coach Bruce Arena told the LA Times.

“He’s a player of quality. I’m not concerned about how he’s going to fit in with our team. “We have a club now with a proven history of success.

“All those things go hand in hand in making LA Galaxy a very attractive team for players such as Steven Gerrard.”

Galaxy president Chris Klein added: “We just started thinking in the universe of players that are out there, we want to make a decision on what signifies a Galaxy-designated player.

“When we look at that, Steven Gerrard is the perfect fit with what he brings to us on the field and the character that he has off it.” (Goal)
