Raheem Sterling has reportedly been told be must go on Liverpool's pre-season tour despite the breakdown of his relationship with Brendan Rodgers.
The Sun claim Liverpool are 'adamant that Sterling joins his team-mates for Sunday's flight' despite requesting to be excused from the tour to Asia and Australia and then phoning in sick rather than train alongside Rodgers on Wednesday.
The Daily Mirror, whose reporters have regular contact with Sterling agent Aidy Ward, claim that Sterling 'says he will not go on tour with Rodgers and maintains he no longer wants to play under the manager'.
They expect Sterling not to turn up to the airport on Sunday and happily take the £70,000 fine that would bring.
Sterling reportedly woke up on Wednesday morning to more than 2000 abusive tweets and 1200 WhatsApp messages after his phone number was published online.
The England forward, according to the Daily Mirror, 'remains adamant he has kicked his last ball under Rodgers' leadership'.
