Raheem Sterling set for Chelsea exit

Raheem Sterling could be on his way out of Chelsea this summer as the club pushes for a permanent sale.

The England international, who joined the Blues from Manchester City in 2022, has struggled to hold a consistent role under multiple managers and is now being offered to clubs across Europe.

Fresh reports suggest that Sterling has been proposed to Italian giants Napoli within the last 48 hours. Sources indicate the Serie A side is weighing its options on the left wing and Sterling is one of the names under consideration.

However, Napoli is not placing all its hopes on Sterling. Other targets, including Dan Ndoye and Takefusa Kubo, are also on their shortlist as the club looks to bolster its attack ahead of the new season.

Chelsea, meanwhile, are clear on their stance, the 29-year-old will only leave on a permanent deal as part of the club’s ongoing squad reshaping under Enzo Maresca.
