Top 5 players in Europe this season who wear the number 7 shirt

#3 Raheem Sterling (Manchester City)

Sterling had his best season in his career.

Raheem Sterling had one the best seasons of his career as he lifted his first Premier League title. He also had his most prolific season in front of goals as he scored 23 goals for the Citizens in all competitions.

Though the likes of Sergio Aguero and Kevin De Bruyne have taken most of the limelight for the blue half of Manchester, it was Raheem Sterling who has made the biggest difference for them.

By the time it was March his 11 goals in the Premier League had helped Manchester City win 11 points. At the age of 23, Sterling has many years of peak football left in him and this even prompted Gary Neville to compare the Englishman to Premier Legends like Thiery Henry and Cristiano Ronaldo.

His performances have been so impressive this season that even Pep Guardiola fears that the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid or PSG might scoop him up from the Etihad.
