Raheem Sterling could be searching for greener grass on the other side but Graeme Souness believes he will find it in his own backyard.

20-year old winger Sterling has reportedly made it clear to the Anfield club that he wants to leave this summer but Souness feels there is no better place to be than where he currently is.

"Maybe someone should whisper in his ear and tell him he's not going anywhere better, there is nowhere better," he told Sky Sports News HQ.

"At this stage in his career, there's nowhere better than Liverpool Football Club.

"Right now, it's all about him learning the game, understanding the game and improving and he's at the best possible club he could be at.

"I think a lot of professional football players who have played at Anfield would say it the best crowd to play in front of. They would be patient with him and understanding, but it looks like he wants to go and play somewhere else which is really sad for Liverpool supporters."
