Sterling dropped by England for Montenegro clash following reported Gomez bust-up

Raheem Sterling will not be considered for England's Euro 2020 qualifier against Montenegro following a reported bust-up between the Manchester City forward and Liverpool defender Joe Gomez.

Sterling and Gomez are said to have been involved in a physical confrontation at England's St George's Park training base.

The incident is thought to have been sparked after a back-and-forth about Liverpool's 3-1 Premier League win over City at Anfield went too far.
