- Joined the Blues in summer of 2022

- Ready for another new challenge
England international Sterling was considered to be quite a coup for the Blues when leaving مانشستر سيتي for Stamford Bridge in 2022. He has managed just 19 goals for Chelsea through 81 appearances, with the 2024-25 campaign being spent on loan at Arsenal.
Sterling failed to rekindle a lost spark there, with just one Carabao Cup goal being recorded while drawing a blank in the الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز, and another move is expected to be made this summer.
It could be that the 30-year-old remains in west London when swapping Chelsea for Fulham. The Telegraph claims that Craven Cottage is considered to be a “credible destination” for Sterling, with Marco Silva looking to add more experience and goal threat to his squad.
It is claimed that the Cottagers will wait until later in the window before making their move, with there no rush to complete a deal that does not require a big-money fee to change hands. Plans are, however, being put in place.
Chelsea are open to a deal as they have loaded their squad with attacking talent. Bayer Leverkusen and Juventus have also been linked with Sterling, but FIFA rules mean only six foreign loans can now be sanctioned – making neighbours Fulham an attractive partner for the Blues to do business with.
