# Manchester United show their Sterling hand

**Manchester United have made an enquiry about the services of Raheem Sterling, according to *The Telegraph*.**

Louis Van Gaal is thought to be keen on adding Sterling to United’s squad this summer, after the 20 year-old has expressed his desire to leave Merseyside.

Sterling, who has been in talks with Liverpool over a new contract through the majority of the season, has received a lot of stick from the Liverpool fans about recent revelations in the press.

Liverpool have insisted to United, though, that Sterling isn’t for sale – especially to a rival side.

It would be surprising if Liverpool were to let one of their best players move to a top four rival, regardless of the price.

Sterling has too been linked with a move to the other Manchester giants, City.

But Louis Van Gaal’s side have made the first official move in the Raheem Sterling saga; but Liverpool are standing firm, as it stands.
