Gerrard has enjoyed a fine start to his managerial career after leading Rangers to the Scottish Premiership title in his second season in charge.

That triumph has seen the former Reds star being showered praise from all over the football word, including from Ferguson, who has seemingly been in contact with the 40-year-old over the past couple of years.

"I'll let you into a little secret: I've had a couple of conversations with (Ferguson)," Gerrard told The Guardian.

"Since I retired, we have parked our rivalry up and he gave me time on the phone to bounce a few things off him, a few questions to do with the management up here at Rangers.

"He was fantastic in those conversations. At some point moving forward, I'd love the chance to sit down with him and have a coffee. He's agreed to that and that's fantastic from his point of view because he doesn't have to give me his time, especially being a rival.

"But I think that goes to show what type of man he is. He's not just the iconic manager we all know."
