Man City's Raheem Sterling forced to take £1.2m mansion off the market

Manchester City and England star Raheem Sterling has taken his former home off the market after failing to find a buyer.

The 22-year-old star put the four-bedroom mansion up for sale after moving from former club Liverpool to City last summer.

The four-bedroom property, in Birkdale, Merseyside, went on the market for £1.5m in August 2015 but the price was slashed to £1.2m - £50k less than he paid - in March.

The property's listing has now been removed from the Rightmove website, despite land registry records showing the home has not been sold since Sterling bought it September 2013.
