Raheem Sterling Wins Integrity and Impact Award for Racism Action

Raheem Sterling's ongoing role as an advocate against racism was recognised on Thursday as he was awarded the Integrity and Impact Award at the BT Sport Industry Awards.

The Manchester City star received the award from England manager Gareth Southgate.

Sterling has spoken out on numerous occasions this season about the treatment of black players within football.

He took to his Instagram account back in December to criticise the unfair media treatment of young black footballers.

And last month, while playing for England against Montenegro, Sterling highlighted the racist abuse he and team-mates Callum Hudson-Odoi and Danny Rose received at the hands of the home fans in Podgorica.
