Gerrard picked up his coaching badge immediately after retirement and his success with Rangers shows he sure knows his onions in coaching. He broke Celtic dormancy in the Scottish League. Breaking the Club nine years streak to deliver Rangers first League in their decade. 

Aston Villa is making use of the international break to have a coach in place for the game against Brighton after resumption from the international break. 

Gerrard has been touted to be a future manager at Anfield and a move back to the Premier League with clubs like Aston Villa will be a good start. But Rangers will feel the blow for losing such an amazing coach. It is reported that all deals have been finalized and personal agreements have been reached between the two camps and Villa wants to get things done before the weekend.
