Jamaican born England International Raheem Sterling is among three English Premier League players on the football black list, an initiative to highlight the most influential black figures in the game.
The other Premier League players on the list Bukayo Saka and Marcus Rashford are named alongside Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira – the only black manager currently in England’s top-flight, while Burnley’s Vincent Kompany also made the list from a coaching perspective.
Overall the football black list is divided into eight categories: administration, coaching and management, commercial, community, players, Lgbtq+, media and practitioners.
