Spanish newspaper AS reported that Chelsea are confident in their ability to use the services of English star Raheem Sterling despite difficulties in negotiations with Manchester City.
Sterling’s contract with Manchester City expires in 2023, but he will leave mostly this summer after spending seven prolific years at the Etihad Stadium to break into London Pride and gain new professional experience, and thus he will be playing for three giant English clubs, after that he was one of the stars of the Liverpool team.

With the Sky Team, the brown star won four Premier League titles, an FA Cup and three Pro League Cups, where he scored 131 goals in 339 appearances for the club. Sterling joined City from Liverpool in the summer of 2015 for £44m.
On the other hand, the Sky Italia network has reported that Chelsea are stepping up their moves to settle a Raheem Sterling deal, capitalizing on the player’s desire to come off the bench under Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. She added that Chelsea gave Sterling £35m, but City were demanding at least £50m to agree to England’s departure to Stamford Bridge. Raheem Sterling appeared in 47 games for Manchester City in all competitions last season, scoring 17 goals and providing 9 assists.
