Manchester United & Liverpool To Scout QPR Wonderkid Raheem Sterling This Week

Representatives from Manchester United and Liverpool lead a list of twelve Premier League clubs who are expected to watch QPR wonderkid Raheem Sterling in action this week.

Sterling has been picked for the England Under-16 side to play Northern Ireland in the Victory Shield on Thursday.

Scouts from United and Liverpool were in attendance at a QPR Under-18 match over the weekend to have another look at the striker.

Reports on Sunday claimed QPR were bracing themselves for a bid for Sterling after he attended the recent Premier League match between Liverpool and Manchester United.

The Championship side are now hoping to fast track Sterling into their first team and he could make his debut when he turns 15 in December.

QPR youth chief Steve Gallen is quoted in the Daily Mirror: "He is a great lad, very popular with his team-mates and with bundles of potential. If he keeps his feet on the ground and continues to work hard he has got a very bright future ahead of him."
