Raheem Sterling commits his long-term future to Liverpool by signing a new contract with the club.

Raheem Sterling has ended the speculation surrounding his future by signing a new contract with Liverpool.

The 18-year-old has become a key part of Brendan Rodgers's side at Anfield, forcing his way into a regular spot in the first team.

The youngster has drawn praise for his performances at the club, leading to him making his England debut last month.

Sterling had been linked with a move away from the club, but insists that signing a new contract at Liverpool was a "dream" for him.

"It's every 18-year-old's dream. I'm just really grateful to be at such a big club like this," Sterling told the club's official website.

"There's a lot more to be done. I haven't begun yet, as the manager has said. Hopefully I can kick on after the New Year and try to do my best for the team and the football club."

Sterling has made 25 appearances for Liverpool so far this season, scoring one goal.
