(photos)Raheem Sterling agent insists his client will not sign a new deal - even if they offer him £900,000-a-week
Liverpool are cancelling a meeting with Raheem Sterling's advisors, scheduled for Friday, following his agent's extraordinary outburst.
In the London Evening Standard, Aidy Ward said Sterling would not sign a new contract even if Liverpool offered '£700, £800 or £900,000 per week', so on that basis Liverpool have decided there is no point holding talks.
Ward has pushed an aggressive agenda all week, with it being made clear from Monday night that the meeting which was arranged with Liverpool officials would end with him telling the club that Sterling wants to leave.
'The lad is from London and he obviously wants to go back home. It might not be about money. It may be about trophies or playing in the Champions League.'
Ward hit back at the Kop hero: 'Carragher is a knob. Everybody knows it. Any of the criticism from current pundits or ex-Liverpool players - none of them things matter to me. It is not relevant.'
He added: 'I am not worried. Worried is making a decision not knowing what is going to happen. Every Premier League club will make a bid for him.'
Sterling, who was heckled at Liverpool's end of season awards on Tuesday night, has two years remaining on his contract and the Reds have made it clear they do not want to sell him in the coming window.
Sportsmail revealed on Thursday that Liverpool's bitter rivals Manchester United had made a sensational enquiry about signing Sterling.
