Raheem Sterling is prepared to stay with Liverpool - if Jurgen Klopp succeeds Brendan Rodgers. Sterling is stalling on a new contract at Anfield as he seeks assurances about the direction the club is going in.

His current deal is set to expire at the end of next season and he has been linked with moves to Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City.

The Sun says Sterling will stay at Liverpool this summer - but only if Jurgen Klopp replaces Brendan Rodgers as manager.

Klopp has been linked with the Anfield hot seat and has so far refused to rule himself out of the running to take charge.
