It was great that I had the opportunity to play in front of my friends and my family at Stamford Bridge. , Raheem Sterling, a player who grew up in London after his family immigrant from Jamaica, shared.

Sterling has played for young teams in London, Alpha & Omega and Queens Park Rangers, before joining Liverpool in 2010. This summer, the 27 -year -old winger returned to the capital to play for Chelsea after a successful period with Man City.

In the seven seasons of Man City, Sterling always scored at two numbers per season. The England star also contributed greatly to nine titles, including four Premier League.

In the international arena, Sterling played 77 matches and contributed 19 goals for England. Three of them were the goals that helped him reach the Euro 2021 final, where they lost only to Italy on the 11m mark.

Chelsea had to spend $ 57 million transfer fee, equivalent to the amount that Man City paid to Liverpool in 2015. This is also the first big contract to be completed after billionaire Todd Boehly bought the team.

"Sterling is a player of a series of victories and signing a contract with him is an important step in strengthening the squad," Boehly said. "We are very happy when he returns to London with Chelsea. We look forward to witnessing his world level at Stamford Bridge."
