[Saba Sports News] During the first round of the Premier League match between Chelsea and Manchester City, Raheem Sterling was not included in the team’s squad, and his representatives subsequently issued a statement expressing dissatisfaction. According to British media reports, Sterling is currently considering all possible options. Last Friday, Enzo Maresca informed Sterling that it would be difficult for him to get regular playing time with the first team this season. This news caught Sterling off guard, as there were no indications before that his future was uncertain at Chelsea. Over the weekend, Chelsea gave Sterling some time off. The report states that Sterling has requested direct dialogue with the club to discuss his future. Maresca also stated that he would communicate with the player. If Sterling finds out that Chelsea does not require him, he will not stay. However, any potential transfer would need to meet the requirements of all parties involved, including Sterling’s family. Sterling still has three years left on his contract with Chelsea, and the club is willing to listen to offers for him. Last month, Juventus contacted Chelsea about the possibility of signing Sterling.
