There is a growing feeling that Raheem Sterling will consider leaving Manchester City this summer. Sterling was rotated a lot by Pep Guardiola last season, and he won't settle for an uncertain game time. His concerns over playing time have increased since the competition over the attacking positions will increase due to the arrivals of Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez. The England international has just under 12 months remaining on his current contract, and talks over a new deal have stalled.
Chelsea is considered the English club with the greatest interest in signing the Englishman. Manchester City would prefer to sell Sterling abroad, but with hopes of selling him for £60million, Chelsea is in pole position, especially if they don't settle a deal with Ousmane Dembele soon.
Sterling has previously stated that he has a desire to play abroad at some point of his career. Real Madrid and Barcelona are keeping an eye on the situation. Bayern Munich is also interested, especially if they fail to get a deal with Liverpool's Sadio Mane.
