The video had been taken by Gerrard himself, holding the camera and speaking in Arabic for the first time in his life.

It was a short message. He said: "Hello, I'm Steven Gerrard. I am an Al-Ettifaqi." 

The 43-year-old former Liverpool captain then ended the video by speaking in English to say: "See you soon."

Earlier on Monday, Ettifaq's social media team posted a montage of clips from Gerrard's playing career, announcing Gerrard as the new head coach. 

He is the latest big name to move to Saudi Arabia, after a huge push in the country to improve its domestic league.
