Manchester City player, Raheem Sterling has revealed that he was once a massive fan on Manchester United.
The 24-year-old Sterling enjoyed another stellar season for Manchester City, scoring 17 goals and adding 10 assists in 34 Premier League games.
But despite being a blue, and an ex Liverpool player, Sterling was formerly a huge fan of Manchester United.
His words, “I was at the final in 2007,”
“I shouldn’t really say this — not now, definitely not now! — but when I was young I was a massive United fan. I had an old United kit, from when they won the last FA Cup.”
“To be in the stadium… it was incredible,”
“It was unbelievable and that was when I tried to give the tickets to the school. That was motivated by that — being so close to the stadium and not going there more than once.
“If two or three of the kids could be inspired, then that’s all I was trying to do. Purely, that’s how I felt at the time.
“If there was a kid who had a chance of being a footballer, hopefully that will give them motivation or inspiration to change their dreams.”
