Bellingham made such an influence on the Championship club that when he left, the Blues retired the number 22 shirt which was the number that the midfielder wore to lead his side to avoid relegation in the 2019/20 season. The deal saw Bellingham sign for a reported fee of £25 million and ever since he has ...
Chelsea are in pole position to land Raheem Sterling after Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola signalled that winger is now surplus to requirements. City paid Liverpool just shy of £50m to sign Sterling in 2015 in a transfer which provoked outrage among Reds fans, who labelled the player greedy. But it seems his trophy-laden spell in Manchester is set to come to an end with Sterling, 27, now massively odds-on to be playing for Chelsea next season.

Coming off the back of a Champions League triumph, many expected Chelsea’s 2021/22 campaign to take the world by storm. However, the reality was far from expectation and reinforcement is needed at Stamford Bridge this summer. Chelsea finished third in the 2021/22 Premier League season with 74 total points – 19 adrift the champions Manchester City, who pipped Liverpool to the crown on the final day of the season. Thomas Tuchel’s side fell short in two cup finals, losing to Liverpool on penalties in both the Carabao Cup and FA Cup at Wembley following two stalemates after 120 minutes each. Under new ownership from Todd Boehly after a £4.25bn takeover from Roman Abramovich, Blues fans are expecting an influx of cash this summer to bolster their squad and challenge for a seventh league title i...
Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling has been linked with a move away from the Premier League giants recently and it appears that the player wants to go out on loan when the transfer window reopens in January. According to Ian McGarry from the Transfer window podcast, the player has already informed Manchester City that he wants to leave on loan and it remains to be seen whether the Premier League side are willing to sanction his departure midway through the season. Apparently, Arsenal are the only club interested in signing the England international and a return to London would be a tempting proposition for Sterling. There is no doubt that the 26-year-old is one of the best wingers in the Premier League but he has fallen down the pecking order at Manchester City this season. The former ...

Rio Ferdinand has told Newcastle United that they should sign young English players in January rather than targeting top players from abroad. The famous television pundit believes that the Magpies should try to sign the likes of Jesse Lingard, Raheem Sterling and Declan Rice in the next transfer window. The Tyneside club saw a £300 million takeover by a Saudi-led consortium last week, which means they now have the wealthiest owners in the Premier League. They are expected to make some big signings in January, after having a largely uneventful summer transfer window. The new owners want the club to challenge for trophies and they are expected to hire a new manager in the coming weeks, with Steve Bruce likely to be dismissed soon. According to Ferdinand, Newcast...
Tottenham Hotspur are eying a deal to sign Manchester City ace Raheem Sterling, according to a report from The Sun. Spurs boss Nuno Espirito Santo will be keen to bolster his attacking ranks this summer, especially with Harry Kane facing an uncertain future in north London.

Sterling would certainly add some much needed pace and directness to Spurs’ attack. The former Liverpool and Queens Park Rangers ace has bagged an incredibly impressive 114 goals...
