KENNY DALGLISH is handing Liverpool schoolboy wonder Raheem Sterling a dream ticket to Europe.
The teenage sensation still attends Rainhill High School on Merseyside, as well as the Liverpool Academy.
But he will spend part of half-term as one of a handful of rookies in the squad for tomorrow's Europa League clash at Sparta Prague.
Sterling, aged just 16 years and 79 days, is rewarded for a stunning five-goal display in Monday's 9-0 Youth Cup demolition of Southend and he could even get a place on the bench for the last 32 first-leg showdown.
He will become the youngest player to appear for the Kop if he gets a chance.
The current record is held by Jack Robinson, who was 16 years and 250 days old.
Liverpool have pencilled in Andy Carroll for his debut against Manchester United in three weeks as he fights back from injury.
Jamie Carragher thinks backlines will be worried at the thought of facing the £35m striker. He said: "Carroll has that aggression that makes defenders fear him."
