Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard says he would have agreed to stay at the club if he had been offered a new contract during the offseason.
The 34-year-old announced last week he is leaving at the end of this season to join Major League Soccer in the US after spending his entire career at Liverpool.
Gerrard said the turning point in his decision to depart came when manager Brendan Rodgers told him he could no longer play every game.
