Liverpool player, Joe Gomez has been left with a scar under his eye after an altercation with Raheem Sterling.
Recall that both players first had an altercation during the EPL game between Liverpool and Manchester United on Sunday.
At the player’s canteen on Monday, Raheem Sterling reportedly grabbed Gomez by the neck and asked if he’s ”still the big man”.
This led to the FA suspending him from England’s game against Montenegro on Thursday.
‘The FA can confirm Raheem Sterling will not be considered for Thursday’s EURO 2020 qualifier against Montenegro as a result of a disturbance in a private team area at St. George’s Park today,’ a statement read. ‘He will remain with the squad.’
Sterling also addressed the bust-up with Joe Gomez on Instagram: ‘We are in a sport where emotions run high and I am man enough to admit when emotions got the better of me,’ he posted. ‘Both Joe and I have had words and figured things out and moved on.’
