Raheem Sterling’s move to Chelsea has not worked out as intended. The winger joined Chelsea in 2022 and failed to nail down a spot in the starting eleven.
As a result, it was no surprise to see the 30-year-old winger spend the 2024/25 season out on loan at Arsenal, where he struggled to make a notable impact as well.
Chelsea want to sell Sterling this summer after a disappointing Arsenal loan because they’ve moved on with a new crop of wide players.
In such a scenario, it only looks like a case of when the Englishman will leave the Blues and who he will join.
Journalist Simon Phillips has claimed via Substack that Fulham have been ‘alerted’ to the availability of Chelsea’s Sterling as he looks for a new club.
It is reported that the Englishman wants to stay in London to be close to his family, so he’s limited on where he could move next.

Sterling will need to lower his wage demands, and that’s something he may be willing to do.
Phillips adds that Fulham, like Sterling and have an interest in signing him. However, Marco Silva’s side are weighing up whether they can make a move because his wages are an issue and will need to be lowered.
If Fulham secure a deal for Sterling, it would be an incredible coup. He’s got an incredible CV despite a drop-off in recent years.
