Liverpool insist they expect Sterling to stay

“Raheem is a Liverpool player and has over two years left on his contract. We expect Raheem Sterling to be here for a long time.”

Liverpool expect Raheem Sterling to stay with them for “a long time”, Reds chief executive Ian Ayre has stressed.

Forward Sterling is in an apparent contract wrangle with the Merseyside outfit, with the 20-year-old admitting he had rejected a £100,000-per-week deal in a recent interview that was not sanctioned by the club.
