Raheem Sterling has not been called up by Enzo Maresca in the Chelsea squad for the clash against Manchester City, this Sunday, in the Premier League. A decision difficult to digest for the England international and his entourage. Less than an hour before the match, the 29-year-old player’s camp published a statement expressing their incomprehension about this decision.

Raheem Sterling is contracted to Chelsea for the next three years. He returned to England two weeks early to train individually and has enjoyed a positive pre-season under the new manager, with whom he has developed a good working relationship. He is committed, as always, to performing at the highest level for Chelsea and the fans, whom he holds in high regard, and given his inclusion in the official pre-match squad this week, we expected Raheem to be involved in this weekend’s fixture in some capacity. As his representatives, we have always had positive dialogue with Chelsea and assurances from the club. We have always had positive dialogue and assurances from Chelsea regarding Raheem’s future with the club, and we therefore look forward to clarifying the situation. In the meantime, we will continue to support Raheem’s desire to start the new season in a positive way. “, Sterling representatives said in a statement released by the Daily Mail.
