Chelsea is ready to unload Raheem Sterling permanently once his ready for arsenal ends this summer.
Sterling, who joined the Gunners on the day of the deadline during the summer transfer window, was pushed out of the photo at Stamford Bridge when Enzo Maresca resumed last summer. His move brought him together with Mikel Arteta, but things did not go as planned.
Despite the difficulties of Arsenal’s injuries, the 30 -year -old barely presented, having only four first league departures and accumulating only 954 minutes of all competitions. Given its limited impact, Arsenal does not intend to make the movement permanent, which means that Sterling should return to Chelsea at the end of the season.
But a new start to Stamford Bridge is not on the cards either. Even if Chelsea fought for goals, Maresca does not intend to reintegrate Sterling into the team. The club is now focusing on securing a permanent transfer.
Raheem Sterling faces the Chelsea outing while the summer window is looming
According to athletics, Chelsea has already excluded two possibilities – another loan decision and a contract buy -back, leaving a sale as the only viable option. Sterling has two more years on his contract at the opening of the summer window, and Chelsea works with his representatives to find him a new club.
The Saudi clubs were linked, but Chelsea thinks that there is still a chance to conclude an agreement in Europe, despite the high sterling wages. Initially, Arsenal seemed to be a long -term destination, but with Arteta leaving the winger, a return to the Emirates does not occur.
