Steven Gerrard is reportedly plotting an unexpected Rangers reunion at Al-Ettifawq.

The former Ibrox boss is thought to be preparing an offer to land Jim McAllister as kit coordinator.

The Daily Record reports Gerrard has offered McAllister the role in Saudi after working alongside him at Rangers.

Former Morton and Dundee midfielder McAllister had worked under Jimmy Bell at Rangers before taking on the kit man role at Ibrox.

However, after leaving the club earlier this year, McAllister could make the switch to the Middle East to reunite with Gerrard in the lucrative Saudi league set-up.

Gerrard has overseen a major overhaul of the Al-Ettifaq side with significant investment in the playing squad.

The former Ibrox boss signed ex-Celtic duo Moussa Dembele and Jack Hendry and has also brought Jordan Henderson and Demarai Gray to the club. Georginio Wijnaldum also made the switch to the Saudi League to team up with Gerrard.

Gerrard is assisted by former England under-20s manager Ian Foster, technical coach Tom Culshaw, fitness coach Jordan Milsom and analyst Ray Shearwood in the Al-Ettifaq backroom team.

Al-Ettifaq currently sit fourth in the Saudi Pro League table with five wins from their first seven league outings this term.
