CARRAGHER: STERLING WORTH £30M
Sky Sports pundit and former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has just given his views on Raheem Sterling's move to Manchester City for £49million, saying the 20-year-old forward is "possibly worth £30million."
"At this stage of his career and what he’s done up to now, he’s possibly worth around £30million. I think the extra money comes from the fact that Man City are so desperate for English players, and Liverpool have exploited that.
"In the next three or four years, if Sterling can take City to a couple of Premier League titles, more success in the Champions League, they will say he’s been worth it.
"Now he’s moved there will be more eyes on him, of course, but let’s not forget he’s still a young player. Over the next two or three years hopefully we’ll be talking more about Sterling on the pitch than off it, as we have been the last few months."
If not the most annoying thing of the "saga" is the fact that 2 weeks ago Liverpool would be foolish to be losing him now...now they are the Jordan Belford of negotiations and are the wisest club in Istree...grates me
