Manchester City defender John Stones has hailed the England form of Raheem Sterling.

Stones believes Sterling's career set-backs have made him a better player as he declared he would love to see his Manchester City team-mate win Player of the Tournament at EURO 2020.

Three goals and a string of impressive performances have made Sterling a leading contender for the individual accolade ahead of Sunday's final with Italy.

“I couldn't be happier for him," the defender said at a pre-match press conference ahead of the final.

“He has gone through some difficult times personally. You can see it has motivated and he has come out of it a better player.

“That's what top players do. They find a way to succeed and excel as a person and as a player. Raheem has done that on and off the pitch. He really deserves it."
