The news has gone down well in Chelsea’s dressing room. Raheem Sterling has agreed a move to Stamford Bridge and his new teammates are eagerly awaiting his arrival.
They know what Chelsea would be getting from Sterling: a solid professional whose commitment can never be questioned, an intelligent leader highly motivated after leaving Manchester City, and a proven Premier League goalscorer who should make it easier for Thomas Tuchel to build a more flexible and clinical attack.
There is no doubt that his signing would be an encouraging first step from Todd Boehly, Chelsea’s interim sporting director.
The American may be new to the ruthless world of recruitment, but nobody could argue that he had failed to deliver on Sterling.
