#7 | Raheem Sterling - 2021/22 Performances

[AliAdel]

Anyone know where he is with renewing his contract as that all appears to be quiet atm

He probably knows no top team in their right minds will fork over 60m for him…. So he’s running down the contract and banking big on that signing-on-fee.
I don’t blame him for it, honestly.
Would personally rather wait two years and go to madrid for free and then get shipped to arsenal now for reduced wages. It’s a no-brainer; really.

if true city really want to sell him

A bit awkwardly for Sterling, it looks like Grealish is starting to showcase similar strengths and uses on the left himself. I think that's why we're seeing him operate more centrally this season.

There is nothing remotely similar about him and Grealish.

On loan lol, bollocks lazy click bait

Wouldn't put it past Barcelona to try something arrogant like that though. I can imagine whoever answered the phone at City got a few laughs out of it.

Transfer deadline day today.

Just heard that Sterling has gone to Blackpool on loan. I was getting all excited then I found out that it was Dujon Sterling of Chelsea

Needs to be played down the middle from now on. He's finished as a winger and easily capable of scoring 30 across all comps.

He's clearly down the pecking order at the moment as well and that's without Foden fit.

Obviously the games will ramp up soon and he will get plenty of starts once rotation kicks in, but for a senior squad member like Sterling, I think there's going to be some hesitancy committing long term right now until he sees how this season plays out.

If he doesn't regain a starting place in the team by the end of the season, he has a significant amount of leverage with 1 year left on his contract if he angles at a move next summer or wants assurances about his standing in the team.
