And speaking at the BT Sport Industry Awards on Thursday night, April 25, after picking up The Integrity and Impact Award, for his stance against racism in football, Sterling said: “It is exciting, to be fair. Especially before the game yesterday [against Manchester United].

“Any little slip and you've got the Liverpool guys who could go on top of you.

“You don't want that. I don't want that. I don't think anybody wants that.”

He added: “So you try to do your best to make sure you win the game.

“But it is enjoyable. This is what I became a professional football player for – it's for these moments.

“Win or lose [the title], you're still going to look back on it and just be grateful for these unbelievable moments."

Sterling spent three years at Liverpool before completing a controversial £49million move to City in 2015.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Raheem Sterling has outlined how he feels racism can be tackled out of football after being a victim.

The England international told football authorities to make sure that any team whose fans are caught in racist abuse should be given a 9-point deduction.

Sterling went on to call for teams to be forced to play behind closed doors for three matches if racist incidents occurred.
