The Telegraph reported that Fulham has included Sterling on the summer window signing list, but plans to take action against the Chelsea striker later in the transfer window.

Sterling, 30, played for Arsenal last season on loan and will be allowed to leave Chelsea again this summer, with its West London neighborhood club becoming the potential next home. When building the Premier League lineup, Marco Silva not only considers releasing the Gunners winger Nelson who he played for last season, but also uses Sterling as an important candidate for supplementing his experience. The 82-time veteran, eager to prove himself, has been abandoned three years ago when he switched from Manchester City to the Blues for £47.5 million.

Although Sterling has recently had a scandal with Leverkusen and Juventus, Fulham, who stayed in the Premier League, can avoid the trouble of transnational relocation. During his short-term loan last season, he started 13 games for Arsenal. Chelsea hopes to clean up many players including Charoba and Chichilville before closing the window, and Sterling is also on the list.

Sterling, introduced by Tuchel in 2022, may return to England's vision if she gets a stable chance next season. The last time he played for the Three Lions was the quarterfinals of the 2022 World Cup, he lost to France. With FIFA setting the cap on loans to 6 players, Chelsea needs to carefully plan their loans.

Sterling's situation at Chelsea club has long been clear. Despite his brilliant resumes from Liverpool and Manchester City, he was excluded from the first team plan by Maresca at the beginning of last season.
