Raheem Sterling is currently training at home after being excluded from Chelsea’s squad by manager Enzo Maresca. Sterling, 29, is expected to leave Chelsea this summer after ruling out a move to Saudi Arabia. He was left out of the matchday squad for Chelsea’s Premier League opener against Manchester City and first-team training at Cobham.

Sterling, eager to revive his international career, is seeking a new club with Chelsea’s help before the transfer window closes next Friday. The 29-year-old winger has not played for England since the 2022 World Cup, despite scoring 20 goals in 82 caps. Juventus and Aston Villa have expressed interest in signing Sterling, though he has declined a move to the Saudi Pro League.

Maresca confirmed that Sterling is not in his plans, explaining that he would struggle for game time. Sterling’s number seven shirt has already been reassigned to Pedro Neto. In addition to Sterling, Ben Chilwell and Trevoh Chalobah are also likely to leave Chelsea, with Chalobah losing his squad number to new signing Joao Felix.
