Raheem Sterling 'willing to play for England Under-21s next summer'

Sterling 'willing to play for Under-21s'

Liverpool winger Raheem Sterling is reportedly willing to play for England at next summer's Under-21 European Championships.

The 19-year-old found himself at the centre of a club versus country debate after dropping out of the Three Lions senior squad to face Estonia earlier this week, complaining of tiredness.

However, Sterling is determined to prove his commitment to England by sacrificing part of his summer holiday to represent his country at Under-21 level, according to The Mirror.

Luke Shaw, Ross Barkley, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Calum Chambers, who are all capped at senior level, could also feature for Gareth Southgate's side at the finals.
