Liverpool winger-cum-forward Raheem Sterling has been awarded the prestigious Golden Boy prize, handed out each year to the best young player in Europe as judged by Italian sports paper Tuttosport.
Sterling got the nod ahead of Lille's Belgian striker Divock Origi and PSG's Brazilian centre-back Marquinhos, becoming only the second Englishman to be given the accolade, after Wayne Rooney a decade ago. The 20-year-old Jamaica-born starlet succeeds Juventus and France midfielder Paul Pogba in the Golden Boy throne, while Real Madrid playmaker Isco won the award in 2012 back when he was at Málaga.
