Steven Gerrard, one of the highest-paid football managers in the world, earns an impressive £15.2 million a year at Al-Ettifaq. This salary enables him, his wife Alex, and their children to enjoy an exclusive lifestyle in the Middle East.
Rather than living in conservative Saudi Arabia, the Gerrard family have settled in the more Westernised Bahrain. They rent a residence for £10,000 a month in the exclusive Hamala Village neighbourhood. The property comprises six spacious bedrooms, a pool, a tennis court, and a games room.
Alex Gerrard enjoys the attractions of Bahrain's capital, Manama, where she visits luxury boutiques in the Bahrain World Trade Center. Among her favourite brands are Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Versace. She also frequently visits The Avenues shopping mall, which offers both exclusive and popular brands.
The three youngest Gerrard children attend the most prestigious English-speaking school in Bahrain, where the tuition is £11,000 a year. The family also enjoys numerous amenities, such as exclusive fitness clubs at the Ritz-Carlton and Four Seasons hotels, where Steven has complimentary access as part of his contract.
The Gerrards happily spend time at the exclusive Bahrain Rugby Club, a popular meeting place among British expats to watch Premier League matches. The couple have also been spotted at the Cut restaurant in the Four Seasons hotel, where chef Wolfgang Puck serves steaks for up to £200.
End of luxuries for the legend's family?
The luxurious lifestyle of the Gerrard family may soon come to an end if Steven is dismissed from Al-Ettifaq. As reported by "The Sun," pressure from fans and experts is mounting following the unexpected exit from the King's Cup.
