Liverpool boss Dalglish to make Raheem Sterling youngest ever Red

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish could hand teenager Raheem Sterling a debut in their Europa League clash at Sparta Prague.

Sterling, aged just 16 years and 79 days, is rewarded for a stunning five-goal display in Monday's 9-0 Youth Cup demolition of Southend and he could even get a place on the bench for the last 32 first-leg showdown.

He will become the youngest player to appear for the Kop if he gets a chance.

The current record is held by Jack Robinson, who was 16 years and 250 days old.
