Carra: Raheem should be embarrassed
Print Edition
LIVERPOOL winger Raheem Sterling has come under a withering attack from one of the club’s former stalwarts over his apparent reluctance to sign a reported 100,000 pounds (US$155,340) per week deal.
The 20-year-old England international’s future at Liverpool is clouded in uncertainty with British media reports yesterday suggesting Sterling is poised to request a transfer.
Manchester City is one of the club’s being linked with a move for Sterling who, according to Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has been offered an “incredible” new contract.
With Liverpool insisting Sterling is not for sale, the saga is bound to rumble on into the summer and Jamie Carragher, now a television pundit, said he should be embarrassed to walk into training this week and suggested a change of agent.
“I’d be embarrassed to walk into training tomorrow and show my face to everyone; even the lady on the reception,” former Liverpool defender Carragher told Sky Sports.
“Raheem Sterling is a great kid. He’s not some flash young kid. He’s not loud, he’s not in people’s faces. He needs to change his agent. That’s the one thing he needs to change.”
Carragher said Sterling still had to prove he was worth the kind of salary enjoyed by the league’s biggest names.
“If you want trophies and big money they won’t be given to you, you have to earn them,” Carragher said.
