Man City forward highlights top roles for Lampard and GerrardCampbell 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.
