Steven Gerrard insisted he has "no regrets" over turning down interest from Real Madrid, Inter and Bayern Munich to stay with Liverpool.

The former Reds captain made 710 appearances for the club, scoring 186 goals and winning eight trophies during his 17-year spell on Merseyside.

He led Liverpool to Champions League glory in 2005, when they staged their famous comeback over AC Milan in the final, while also winning two FA Cups, three EFL Cups, one UEFA Cup (Europa League) and one Super Cup.

Gerrard never managed to win the Premier League, however.

Madrid and Inter both held interest in Gerrard when Jose Mourinho was their head coach, while Bayern saw him as a possible replacement for Bastian Schweinsteiger in 2015. Chelsea were also linked with him on several occasions.

Despite seeing the likes of Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham enjoy success abroad, Gerrard stood by his decision to stay at Anfield.

"I had some interest from foreign teams and the majority of that was through Jose Mourinho," Gerrard said on The Overlap Daily.

"Inter, Real Madrid, on a couple of occasions, and at the back end a few conversations with my agent when [Bastian] Schweinsteiger was leaving Bayern [in 2015].

"I wasn't really that interested in it because I was never going to leave Liverpool at the time.

"I was enjoying my football under Brendan [Rodgers] when that one came but yes, three of four of the big teams showed some interest during my career, which is flattering, of course it is.

"When you watch the likes of Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane and you see them winning loads of trophies with foreign teams, it does cross your mind and you go back and you think.

"But I have no regrets in terms of the decisions I made. No regrets."
