- Man City forward highlights top roles for Lampard and Gerrard
- Campbell and Cole ‘haven’t been given the right opportunities’
Raheem Sterling has called for English football to seize the moment and finally address its lack of black representation in positions of power.
The Manchester City and England forward made the comments during an appearance on the BBC’s flagship political programme, Newsnight, in the wake of anti-racism protests that have taken hold across the world. Advance clips had shown the 25-year-old offering his support to those who have taken to the streets in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death at the hands of police in the United States, but the full interview with Emily Maitlis saw him focus on matters closer at hand.
