August 22, according to Spanish media outlet Sport, Barcelona continues to look for a winger in the transfer window, but Sterling is not an option.
The report claims that Barcelona continue to look for wingers in the market, with Leo, Chiesa and Kingsley Coman being the main targets. But the 29-year-old Chelsea player Sterling has not appeared on Barça’s future candidate list because he is one of the players Chelsea “abandoned” this summer.
Sterling was excluded from Chelsea’s Premier League debut squad, which prompted his team to react, demanding clarification of his role in Maresca’s team. Maresca responded to this before the Europa Conference League match against Servette, admitting: “I told Sterling that it is difficult for him to get playing time with us. I am not saying that he is not a good player.”
Although Sterling’s contract with Chelsea does not expire until 2027, the winger is looking for a new destination for this season, but Barça is not interested, despite the fact that Stamford Bridge would make it easier for him to leave.
