Raheem Sterling should still be a Liverpool player, according to his agent Aidy Ward.
|||Raheem Sterling should still be a Liverpool player and it would have been a ‘dream come true’ for him to work under Jurgen Klopp, according to his agent Aidy Ward.
In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Ward revealed how the relationship between former Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers and Sterling broke down before the winger’s £49million move to Manchester City last summer.
Ward also accused Rodgers of ‘underhandedness’, adding: ‘I have no issue with anyone but Brendan Rodgers. He had a massive job with massive funds. How did he do? Good coach, but as a manager I didn’t like certain things about how he dealt with Raheem.
‘Fifty per cent of the players would probably tell you Brendan is not a good manager, but he is a good coach.
‘Raheem could have stayed, he should be at Liverpool. In December I said we’ll sign a contract if there is a buy-out clause, which are now common. They said no to that.
‘Then there was an underhandedness, there were sly remarks. In press conferences, Brendan told everyone Raheem would sign — why do that? I knew, Brendan knew and Liverpool knew there was an issue.
‘The new manager probably would have been a great fit for Raheem — passionate, disciplined in the right way, new ideas, not afraid of trying new things. He’s going to get the best out of those players. It could have been a dream come true.’ - Daily Mail
