Dietmar Hamann: 'Liverpool must be tough on Raheem Sterling'

Dietmar Hamann claims that former club Liverpool should 'show their teeth' in the Raheem Sterling transfer saga.

Dietmar Hamann has urged former club Liverpool to be bold when it comes to the Raheem Sterling transfer saga.

The 20-year-old winger reportedly wants to leave the club this summer after turning down a lucrative new contract, even though he has two years remaining on his current deal at Anfield.

With Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City all thought to be keen on the England international, Hamann believes that Liverpool must be decisive in whatever they do.

"Liverpool have got to show their teeth now and show people 'this is how we do things'," the German told Sky Sports News. "Unless a club comes in with a big offer I wouldn't even speak to the agent or the player. The player's got two years left on his contract – there's no need to talk now.

"I certainly wouldn't offer him a new contract. I would wait and see because I think the jury's still out. He's a very talented player, but he was under par last season.

"I'd rather see him somewhere else and get the money, but having said that, the price has got to be right. Whatever Liverpool ask for him – in excess of £35m, £40m or maybe £50m – whether anybody pays it I don't know."

Sterling has scored one goal in 14 appearances for the England national team.
