Raheem Sterling was apparently baptized on Sunday, September 8, according to a video making the rounds on social media.
Additional footage shows the new Arsenal player being baptized at a church in Jamaica at the age of 29.
A statement from Sterling said: “The reason I want to be baptized is that, from a young age, maybe as young as my sons there, I always had a dream to get my mom and my family out of a difficult situation. and I have always followed that dream”.
“But along the way, you’re creating habits and egos. I’m following what I believe I wanted, which is really what I wanted growing up.”
“So, I could feel that as I was growing up and maturing, I could see that I was chasing my ego, chasing what’s not really about me.”
“I was going to different environments, I was going to certain places and I realized that I don’t believe that this is my life or who I really am,” the Chelsea star, who is on loan at the Gunners for a season, further emphasized. /Football Match Up/
