Chelsea fans have been told that Raheem Sterling could leave the Premier League and make the move abroad, as he may fancy a less competitive league to play in.
Sterling won four Premier League titles at Manchester City but has struggled since his £50m move to Stamford Bridge in 2022. The 31-year-old winger hoped to revive his career on loan at Arsenal last season but only contributed one goal for the Gunners in 28 appearances in all competitions.
He has been heavily linked with a number of Premier League moves in recent months, but Former Blues star Jody Morris has opened up and claimed that Sterling may actually decide to leave the Premier League.
Asked where Sterling could end up, Johnson added: ‘I’m not sure where I see Raheem’s next move in football being. We have been talking about him for a few years now in this way, and he is still at CHELSEA
‘He has 18 months left on his contract, so it will all depend on what he wants as to where his next move is. He could just see his contract out, but I think he will want to get back playing again as soon as possible.
‘As for the move, I’m not sure. I think if he wants to push to go to the World Cup, then he needs to play consistently in the Premier League.
‘However, he might be sick of the relentless fight in the Premier League at this stage in his career and potentially move somewhere less competitive.
‘It completely depends on where his head is at. I am such a big fan of Sterling, and I always have been. I’ve been saying for years that I think he has got loads to give at the highest level of football.
‘I think it would be a shame if he moved abroad to the MLS or Saudi Arabia right now. I would love to see him do a few more years in the Premier League before winding down his career.’
