Sterling rises as Reds plan Euro inflation
The five-goal star of Monday’s 9-0 FA Youth Cup demolition of Southend was included in the squad which travelled for the Europa League last-32 tie against Sparta Prague, while the injured Steven Gerrard and Daniel Agger were left behind.
If he plays tonight, Sterling would become the club’s youngest first-team player, at 16 years and 71 days.
