Reds reject City Sterling bid

Liverpool have rejected a £25million offer from Manchester City for forward Raheem Sterling. Press Association Sport understands the bid, which could rise to £30million with add-ons , was not even seriously considered by the Anfield hierarchy. They value the 20-year-old, who has 24 months left on his current deal, nearer £50million and believe they remain in a strong position despite Sterling turning down a £100,000-a-week offer in January which was later followed by comments from agent Aidy Ward suggesting the player would never sign a new contract.
