The former Arsenal and England striker believes that the attacker is judged for reasons other than his footballing ability on many occasions
Ian Wright believes that the criticism faced by Manchester City and England star Raheem Sterling is motivated by racism.
Sterling has established himself as one of the Premier League's top talents since moving to the Etihad Stadium in 2015.
But despite enjoying a breakout season last term in helping City to the title, the player has been a regular target for certain sectors of the media.
A mediocre World Cup only heightened that criticism, but Wright claims there are other factors behind the jibes.
