- Sterling set to leave Chelsea
- Winger attracting interest from UCL club
- Could move abroad
Sterling is all set to end his stay in English football after attracting interest from a Champions League club abroad, according to The Athletic. The 30-year-old began his pre-season training with Chelsea last week but could now leave his homeland to make a fresh start.
Since leaving مانشستر سيتي in 2022, Sterling has not enjoyed much success in club football, as well as internationally. He has not featured for the England national team since the 2022 World Cup and was shipped off on a loan deal to Arsenal last summer, once Enzo Maresca took charge of the Blues. The former Liverpool star still has two years left on his Chelsea contract, but The Athletic claims that they will accept an offer of just £20 million ($27m) for the winger.
Chelsea will also look to offload a few more of their out-of-favour stars as they are keen on signing Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig before the summer transfer window closes.
The Club World Cup winners will play a couple of pre-season friendly matches against Bayer Leverkusen and AC Milan at home next month before kicking off their 2025-26 الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز campaign against Crystal Palace on August 17.
