'I'm not scared, but reserved': Raheem Sterling admits he is cautious over the Premier League's plan to restart football and admits to being wary of 'what the worst outcome could be'

Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling has expressed concerns about the safety of the Premier League season resuming - admitting he has contemplated what the 'worst outcome could be'.

Action will not return until June 1 at the earliest following latest government measures but Sterling added that unless the safety of players, staff and officials can be guaranteed, he is not comfortable to play.

Speaking in his YouTube discussion 'Life in Lockdown', the Manchester City and England winger believes any return cannot be solely 'for football reasons'.

'The moment we do go back it just needs to be a moment where it's not just for footballing reasons, it's safe for not just us footballers but the whole medical staff, referees,' the 25-year-old said.
