On the other hand, it seems that this transfer is quite related to rumors that Sterling will be a replacement for Saint Maximin and Al-Ahli expressed his interest in the Chelsea winger. We know that Sterling is finished and cannot compete with the players in the EPL and maybe it is time for him to leave. It wouldn't be too bad for Sterling if he accepted an offer from Al-Ahli and there he would of course just have to live a peaceful life. His performance has also fallen and that is why Sterling is one of the players Chelsea will sell before his contract ends.

I see Raheem Sterling as being a good player and he has a contract with Chelsea until 30/06/2027, last season he had an acceptable performance, he played 31 games, 8 goals, 4 assists. Looking at Chelsea which is a disaster of a team, it still needs to be improved, I think that the performance that Raheem Sterling had last season is very acceptable, and it doesn't make sense in my opinion that he is 29 years old and that performance is good I left Chelsea to go play in the Saudi league knowing that I would have a maximum 3-year contract and after that it would be difficult for me to return to a big European team. In my opinion he should stay at Chelsea and improve at Chelsea. when he is 33 to 34 years old he could go to Saudi league and then he would retire
On the other hand, could this have something to do with Mudryk being applied as a starter because according to the article I included there are words like that. If Chelsea really trusts Mudryk over Sterling, I think this could be a mistake. Well, apart from that, if it is currently possible for Sterling to leave then there is no problem if he joins Al-Ahli. The problem is whether he can return to Europe or not, of course he already knows the risks.
Sterling is only 29 years old, he is not old, so if he decided to go to the Saudi league, he would at most have a 3-year contract in some big Saudi team, and when his contract ends, he would be 32 years old. age and I highly doubt that the Arabs would offer him a lot of money again because the Arabs would know that Sterling, at 32 years old and after playing for 3 years in the Saudi league, would no longer be able to be signed in a big team, being That way Sterling would have destroyed his entire career, he would have been forced to accept any low offer made by the Saudis. That's why in my opinion Sterling should stay at Chelsea, even if he faces difficulties, he would still be the best choice
Laurent Blanc has already signed with Al Ittihad and was officially presented by the Al Ittihad club today
He didn't manage to win the European Champions League as coach of PSG in the 3 years he was coach of PSG, he also doesn't see great things coming from him as coach of Olympique Lyon, so I wouldn't create high expectations about how his performance will be. next season as coach of Al Ittihad, but at least the Arabs are making good choices when it comes to choosing coaches to improve the quality of the Saudi league. I hope that next season Al Hilal will be champions again
