STEVEN GERRARD could add value to one of the Championship’s most high-profile clubs, according to Pat Nevin.The Liverpool icon has been out of management for eight months since being sacked by Al-Ettifaq but has been tipped for a return.Steven Gerrard has been told he would make an impact at Wrexham.PAPhil Parkinson has impressed at the Welsh club, taking them to the Championship.[/caption]After short stints at Aston Villa and in Saudi Arabia, it is Wrexham who would suit the former England midfielder. As Hollywood A-list owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney continue to try and rise through the leagues, Gerrard’s X-factor could provide them something special.Speaking to Escapist Magazine, Nevin said: “I have to say, Wrexham’s a temptation for Steven Gerrard.“With Wrexham, what’s the downside of that? The expectations are minimal from most people in football. “Maybe not from the owners, let’s be fair. But he could make that extra special. “My eyebrows are raising at that one. I’m thinking, ‘Oh yeah, that could be good.’ “And of course, north-west, Wrexham may have a wee understanding with Liverpool Football Club.“I wouldn’t be surprised at that one if that happened. Certainly from Stevie G’s point of view, that might be a temptation.”BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERSPhil Parkinson, who has led Wrexham to back-to-back promotions and tentative dreams of the Premier League already, might disagree.He has Wrexham in 15th in the Championship with two wins, two draws, and three defeats after seven games.That is behind fellow promoted sides Charlton Athletic (seventh) and Birmingham City.Wrexham have won two of their last three games in all competitions and face Leicester City next with opportunities to climb up the table ahead.Gerrard, on the other hand, has struggled since leaving Rangers.Ex-Manchester United man Bobby Robson has made the same link to Wrexham, telling OLBG: “It’s whether Steve wants to get back into the game. “He’s had a good experience in Saudi but a job like that would definitely interest him if he does want back in.“I think Wrexham should give Phil a bit more time because he’s done a great job for them.“They’ve done fantastic to get from where they were to into the Championship in a short period of time.“If they can consolidate in the Championship, even finish mid-table, that would be a really good season from where they’ve come from.“The charisma the US lads have is fantastic, and Wrexham have a good fan base that will get right behind them so there’s always a good atmosphere.“Then with the sponsorship Ryan Reynolds has brought in, that can only hold the club in good stead.”
