Macclesfield Town have declared their interest in Liverpool star Raheem Sterling!

The Conference outfit have opened a Crowdfunder project with a target of £50million for the England star.

The Silkmen said: "Everybody at Macclesfield Town were delighted to hear that Liverpool FC have reportedly set a value on Raheem Sterling. Press reports indicate that the Reds are looking for around £50million for the young England international.

"Now, due to the cost of launching a World Cup bid, Macclesfield Town Football Club are obviously running a little low when it comes to funding a move for Raheem, so we are looking for your help in bringing Raheem to Macclesfield!

"We aim to raise the easily achievable sum of £50,000,000 to fund a transfer bid for Sterling.

"While Raheem may struggle to adapt to the physicality of the Vanarama National League his technique would be ideal for the division.

"Admittedly, the move would be a little step down from the Premier League, but we here at Macclesfield Town can guarantee that Raheem wouldn't have to sit on the bench and watch a 6-1 defeat at Stoke City."
