Sterling misses Liverpool training again

The winger, who has informed the club of his
desire to leave and not take part in next week's
pre-season tour, has failed to report for duty for
the second consecutive day
Raheem Sterling was absent from Liverpool
training for a second day after calling in sick again,
Goal understands.
The winger, who does not want to take part in the
pre-season tour of Australia and Asia , is a target
for Manchester City after informing Brendan
Rodgers of his desire to leave Anfield this summer.
With the Liverpool squad due back for preparations
ahead of the new campaign on Wednesday, Sterling
informed the club he was unable to attend due to
illness and repeated that claim on Thursday
morning.
Sterling has already turned down a new £100,000-
a-week contract, with the 20-year-old agent, Aidy
Ward, claiming all trust between his client and
Rodgers has evaporated over the long-running
transfer saga .
Liverpool are set to fly out on Sunday, ahead of a
game against the Thai All-Stars in Bangkok next
Tuesday.
