The peaceful base is just a short drive from the rental home he had after moving to City from Liverpool in 2015 for £49 million. Its 7,500 square foot floor plan has five bedrooms in addition to a guest flat above the top of three garages. With his £180,000-a-week salary at City, Sterling purchased the home shortly before Christmas and moved in only in time to get settled before his partner, 22-year-old Paige, became a mother last week.

From a previous relationship, the England forward already has a four-year-old daughter named Melody Rose. Even though Sterling was having trouble selling his previous Birkdale mansion, he nevertheless went all out on the new one. The four-bedroom property was listed for £1.5 million 18 months ago, but in March of last year, the asking price was reduced by £300,000. However, Sterling has chosen to remove it off the market because it has not drawn any interest from buyers.
