Liverpool
FC attacker, Raheem Sterling has won Europe’s prestigious Golden Boy award for
his outstanding performances in 2014. The accolade is presented to the best
player under the age of
21 in a top-flight league in Europe and is voted on by
journalists from across the continent.
Sterling is
in good company when it comes to past winners, as the likes of Cesc
Fabregas, Wayne Rooney(the only other English winner back in 2004), Paul Pogba,
Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero have all been ‘Golden Boys’ at one point in
their career.
English
youngsters Luke Shaw, Eric Dier, Calum Chambers and John Stones were also in
the running for the award but Sterling beat them to it after excelling in the
2013-14 campaign for Liverpool and becoming England’s main man at the 2014
World Cup
