FEE AGREED: Man United finally bows to fans pressure agree to sign superstar to replace the players who’s not want by fans amymore- PLAYER ALREADY BID FAREWELL
Raheem Sterling’s future at Chelsea is still uncertain with the winger unlikely to have a place at Stamford Bridge in the coming months unless he sorts out a move away from the club.
Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth has now exclusively told GIVEMESPORT that the former England star could be in Manchester United‘s sights, stating that United are ‘considering’ a move for the Blues star despite Jadon Sancho looking to be on his way out.
Sancho has not played a league game for United in over a year and has been touted with a move away from Old Trafford throughout the window, before reports emerged earlier in the month that Sterling would be on his way out of Chelsea with Enzo Maresca having dropped him for their Premier League curtain raiser against Manchester City.
Sterling Has No Future at Chelsea and Man Utd May Swoop
The winger has been told he isn’t in Maresca’s plans.
The Italian boss confirmed his decision by stating that the former Liverpool star and Ben Chilwell would ‘struggle’ for minutes under his guidance having just signed Pedro Neto to go with the brilliance of Cole Palmer and the resurgence of Noni Madueke.
That has seen a host of clubs linked to Sterling including Aston Villa and Crystal Palace, though with Chelsea reportedly wanting to sign Sancho, the Blues star was quickly linked with United in a potential swap deal for the duo.
Sterling now has just over 24 hours to find a new club and with United supposedly holding an interest, the notion of a move to Old Trafford may not be too far-fetched.
Sheth: United ‘Considering’ Sterling Move
The winger could find his way back north.
Speaking exclusively to GIVEMESPORT, Sheth stated that United are considering a move for Sterling despite United barely needing wide attacking options for the rest of the season – with the Red Devils able to cope without a replacement if they do get rid of Sancho. He said:
“Manchester United is clearly going to be one of those options.
“Now this has come more from the Chelsea end, because they are offering Sterling to United. Now, United, make no mistake about it, if Sancho was to go, they don’t actually need to replace Sancho.
“They feel they’ve got enough quality and quantity in the forward lines to be able to deal with the Sancho departure.
“However, the idea of Sterling is something that they are considering, but they still maintain that the Sterling issue is a Chelsea issue, so they would be willing to allow Sancho to leave regardless of whether Raheem Sterling was to come to Manchester United or not.”
