Sterling, 29, finds himself on the outskirts of west London, indicating a potential desire for a greater role in the next team he joins due to competition for places. A swap deal with Sancho would be an ideal scenario, allowing Sterling to join the club he supported as a kid and potentially seeing a rival for minutes leave. Antony, the Brazil international, has been linked with a move away on loan this summer, but finding a club willing to cover half of his £200,000-a-week wages may prove challenging. His agent stated earlier this summer that Antony has no intentions of leaving and is solely focused on Man United.

Sancho’s confession of being a Blues supporter and naming two Chelsea icons as his heroes in the past might facilitate a potential swap deal. Additionally, special offers, promotions, and adverts are provided to community members. If you wish to leave the community, you can unsubscribe at any time.
