The gentleman of colour is Raheem Sterling. Apparently he plays football -- "soccer" to you North Americans -- for Liverpool. And he is delighted because he's just been made a wonderful offer that he can't refuse. That's as far as I got on the BBC News story, and they seem to have showed only the top half of the picture, so I can't be sure what kind of an offer it was.
To my twisted mind, this picture begs for a caption! Send your suggestion to the usual address. We may even give a prize!
