RAHEEM STERLING has revealed a new leg tattoo of himself and son Thiago sharing a kiss just a day after getting his season off to a flyer.
The Manchester City forward, 23, enjoyed a sparkling opening weekend as he scored against Arsenal in a 2-0 win yesterday.

He has topped that off by revealing the inking of him and his son, just days after he shared a picture of himself and the youngster on which the tattoo is based.
He shared a snap of the design, which was produced by London-based artists Gabriel Tattoos.
Sterling, whose fiancee Paige Milian gave birth to Thiago last year, posted: "Love n football duo @gabrieltattoos"
It is unclear when he had the artwork done on his leg, but it was on show when he played for City in yesterday's victory.
Sterling enjoyed a post-World Cup break in Ibiza with friends and family before getting his feet back under the desk for his day job with City just last week.
And he looked like he had never been away as Pep Guardiola's side dominated the clash in North London.
Guardiola hailed Sterling's performance and wants the former Liverpool man to put pen to paper on a new contract.
The attacker is thought to be holding out for a new deal worth around £300,000 a week.
But City boss Pep said: "We are delighted with him and would like Raheem to stay.
"We'll do our effort to make him feel we count on him. And we do count on him.
"In the end the agents may not have agreements and that may not happen. But he knows and his agent knows we like him and want him a lot.
"People only judge players on the goals scored at the World Cup, but Raheem has this special relation with English football, he's so loved in the locker room."
Sterling's performances in Russia received mixed reviews, but Pep insisted: "He did some very good things in the World Cup, moving well and creating space for others.
"He trained just one week but we needed him today, and he did so well except when he was very tired at the end."
Sterling courted controversy before the World Cup as he revealed a gun tattoo on his leg.
He later revealed it was a tribute to his father, who was shot dead in Jamaica when Sterling was just nine years old.
