Tottenham Line Up £7.5m Bid For Liverpool Starlet
Tottenham Hotspur are mulling over a £7.5m move for 17-year-old Liverpool ace Raheem Sterling, who is also wanted on loan by former club Queens Park Rangers.
With the summer transfer window in full swing, Football Talk will be keeping you up-to-date with all the latest transfer news throughout the summer. Today, Spurs are linked with Raheem Sterling.
Tottenham Hotspur are mulling over a £7.5m move for Liverpool starlet Raheem Sterling, according to the Daily Mail.
The 17-year-old winger is one of the most highly-rated youngsters at Liverpool having joined the club in 2010, ending a seven-year stint at Queens Park Rangers.
His former side have enquired about taking Sterling back on a year-long loan but Spurs want him on a permanent basis and are ready to test Liverpool’s resolve with a £7.5m bid, if the Mail are to be believed.
Sterling was rarely used under former boss Kenny Dalglish, only making 3 substitute appearances towards the end of last season, despite calls from some of the Anfield faithful to give him some playing time.
However, new manager Brendan Rodgers appears to be willing to give the youngster his chance and the player has impressed during the Reds pre-season tour of America.
