There have been reports concerning the future of Raheem Sterling at Chelsea as the 2024 summer transfer window gets closer to its end within a few days.
The England midfielder was left out of the team news by Chelsea’s new manager, Enzo Maresca ahead of his first competitive game of the time with the Blues. However, Raheem Sterling’s camp have released a statement concerning the future of the player.
The statement read as follows,
“Raheem Sterling is contracted to Chelsea for the next three years. He returned to England two weeks early to conduct individual training, and has had a positive pre-season under the new coach, who he has developed a good working relationship with. He is committed, as ever, to delivering at the highest level for Chelsea FC and the fans, who he holds in high regard, and given his inclusion in official club pre-match material this week, our expectation was that Raheem would be involved in this weekend’s fixture in some capacity. As a camp, we have always had positive dialogue with, and assurance from, Chelsea FC in relation to Raheem’s future at the club, so we look forward to gaining clarity on the situation. Until then, we will continue to support Raheem’s desire to start the new season positively.”
Raheem Sterling has not hit the ground running since he moved from the Etihad Stadium to Stamford Bridge. However, all parties involved will hope that the player’s future gets sorted before the transfer window shuts down.
