Liverpool have agreed to sell Raheem Sterling to Manchester City for a fee of £49 million.
The England international has been at the centre of a long-running transfer saga this summer, even threatening to go on strike
before twice calling in sick to training in a bid to force a move away
from the club, having told Brendan Rodgers of his desire to leave.
Sterling was included in the club's pre-season tour squad, despite informing his manager that he did not wish to travel, but his move to City edged closer on Sunday after he was withdrawn from the selection.
Liverpool have now finally acquiesced to his
sale, with City making an offer which is understood to be worth £44m up
front and £5m in add-ons.
