Raheem Sterling is about to break up with Chelsea, leaving England
After the unsuccessful lending period at Arsenal in the 2024/25 season, Raheem Sterling seemed to have come to an end with foggy football. In Arsenal shirt, the British winger caused great disappointment when he could not score any goals in the Premier League and only had only 7 main kicks. At the end of the loan contract, he returned to Stamford Bridge but was not named by Chelsea on the list of World Cup Club, clear signs that he was no longer in the future plan of the blue shirt team.

According to The Athletic, Sterling has attracted the attention from a Champions League club in England and almost will definitely break up with Chelsea in the summer transfer window. The 30 -year -old star started practicing money with the Blues last week, but a farewell seemed inevitable.
Since leaving Man City in 2022, Sterling's career is no longer sublime as before. He faded at the club level, eliminated from England since the 2022 World Cup and was pushed to Arsenal on loan when Enzo Maresca took over Chelsea. Although there are still 2 years of contract, The Athletic revealed that Chelsea is ready to sell Sterling for only £ 20 million, the number shows the decline of a former star who has been double.
Not only Sterling, Chelsea also planned to liquidate more names that are no longer useful, in the context that they are trying to pursue Xavi Simons's signature from RB Leipzig before the transfer market closed.
The Club World Cup champion will have two friendly matches with Bayer Leverkusen and AC Milan at home next month, before starting the 2025/26 Premier League season with Crystal Palace welcoming on August 17.
