SPORTS AGENDA: Steven Gerrard to return to punditry role with Channel 4 for England's Euro 2024 qualifiers, while the Glazers ARE ready to cash in on Manchester United after two weeks of visits from interested groups

Steven Gerrard is set to be part of Channel Four's team for their coverage of England's European Championship qualifiers.

The former England captain has largely gone under the radar since he was sacked as Aston Villa manager in October after just 11 months in charge.

And, in what would be a coup for the broadcaster, who picked up the rights last year, 42-year-old Gerrard is ready to provide an authoritative voice.

An announcement is expected shortly, but Agenda understands the Liverpool legend will be joined by Queen of the Jungle and former Lionesses skipper Jill Scott, plus ex-West Ham and England forward Joe Cole.
