Rodgers: Sterling should accept ‘incredible’ deal

Arsenal v Leicester: Tonight: Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has warned Raheem Sterling’s agents the club will not be held to ransom over his new contract.

The Reds boss said the 20-year-old has been made an “incredible” offer on a new deal, which has been on the table for over a month.

However, Sterling is yet to sign despite indications previously an agreement was imminent, but Rodgers said the club had been generous in their offer. “The club has offered an incredible deal for a young player and I have spoken to Raheem a number of times and he is very happy here and I think you see that in his game,” said Rodgers.
