Manchester City star Raheem Sterling wants to meet FA and Premier League to improve fight against racism

Manchester City star Raheem Sterling wants to organize a meeting with Football Association and the Premier League and speak about improving the fight against racism in football. The Football Writers' Association (FWA) Player of the Year has played a prominent role in speaking out about the issue over recent months. "In football you can get caught up with training every day and games every two, three days so you don't really have a lot of time to be out and speaking to people," he said during a moderated discussion at the Wall Street Journal's Future of Everything conference. "But for sure on my off time and holidays if I can get around and speak to the FA and the people in the Premier League and see how we can go about doing things better in the future for sure I'll be there in person to try and do that." Sterling scored two goals against Watford (6-0) to become the first men’s team to win the English domestic treble of Premier League titles and both domestic cups. "If I go to a football game and I support Manchester United, for example, I don't want to be the person that lets my team down by saying silly remarks in a stadium," said Sterling. "If you know your team is going to get deducted nine points from them winning the league you are not going to say these racist remarks even though you shouldn't have it in your head."
