Raheem Sterling has no interest in penning new terms with Liverpool.
The Telegraph says Liverpool and Sterling are "nowhere near any agreement" on a new contract, according to a source close to negotiations, although there are hopes of an eventual resolution.
Sterling, whose current deal has more than two years left to run, is on roughly £30,000 with assorted first-team appearance bonuses. Liverpool's new offer is understood to be £70,000 a week with handsome bonuses for progress in the major competitions.
Now that Liverpool are out of the Champions League and labouring in the Premier League the prospect of additional payments is clearly less likely. The offer was described as "nowhere near acceptable" by the source.
