Raheem Sterling's representative has said the forward won't sign a new deal with Liverpool and branded club legend Jamie Carragher 'a knob'.

Aidy Ward, who has been heavily criticised by pundits over his handling of the situation, told the Evening Standard that the forward wouldn't a agree to a new contract, even if Liverpool offered nearly £1million a week.

“I don’t care about the PR of the club and the club situation. I don’t care.

“He is definitely not signing. He’s not signing for £700, £800, £900 thousand a week. He is not signing.

“My job is to make sure I do the best with them (my clients). If people say I am bad at my job, or they are badly advised it does not matter.”

Sterling has already turned down a £100k per week deal and was booed at the club's award ceremony.

Speaking on Sky Sports Carragher lambasted Ward over his actions in contract negotiations and told Sterling to change his agent.

“Carragher is a knob. Everybody knows it. Any of the criticism from current pundits or ex-Liverpool players - none of them things matter to me. It is not relevant," Ward told the Standard.
