Steven Gerrard to become DJ after football career?

Fresh off the back of recent celebrity-turned-DJ Joey Essex is Liverpool and England footballer Steven Gerrard, who reportedly wishes to try his hand at the dance music game. The midfielder, 33, is in fine form on the field at moment, hoping to secure Liverpool's first league title win in 24 years, but it seems his post-career plans are already in place.

According to a close friend, the Liverpool captain has been getting DJ lessons for a few years and has even played under the pseudonym of DJ Stevie G at Merseyside nightclub Garlands. "There were 2,000 clubbers dancing along to Stevie's mixing skills. He loved it and he's really good too. Stevie thinks that playing in front of big crowds at nightclubs can replace the buzz of playing football in front of big crowds.

With a World Cup in Brazil to worry about first, it's best Stevie G stays out of the clubs for now but we certainly look forward to when he's selling out Amnesia in Ibiza. Surely anyone's better than Paris Hilton?
