The days of Raheem Sterling at Chelsea appears to be coming to a swift and surprising end just two years after his £47.5 million move from Manchester City.

Real reason Chelsea are forcing Raheem Sterling out
Juventus and Aston Villa are among the clubs linked with the 29-year-old winger, but there’s one potential destination that has everyone talking: a sensational return to Liverpool. Despite his controversial exit in 2015, Raheem Sterling has never hidden his affection for the Reds, even admitting during a 2020 Instagram livestream, “Liverpool is always in my heart.”
Sterling was reportedly open to a Liverpool comeback in 2022 before choosing Chelsea, but could the stars align this time around? While Liverpool boss Arne Slot is keen to bolster his squad before the transfer window closes, Sterling’s profile as a seasoned veteran doesn’t fit the club’s current focus on younger talent.
Still, the possibility of Sterling reuniting with his old club is tantalizing. Will Liverpool look past their youth strategy to bring back the player who once lit up Anfield? Or will Sterling find a new challenge elsewhere as he seeks to revive his career?
As the clock ticks down on the transfer window, the next chapter of Raheem Sterling’s career remains up in the air—but don’t rule out a shock return to the team where it all began.
