He has 19 goals and 15 assists in 81 appearances for the London club, but the move hasn&#8217;t gone as planned.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 31-year-old spent the 2024\/25 season on loan at Arsenal as he was not part of manager Enzo Maresca&#8217;s plans. He returned to his parent club in the summer, but nothing has changed. The Italian manager has made it clear that Sterling is surplus to requirements.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He hasn&#8217;t played a single minute this season and has spent most of his time training alone. Despite this situation, Sterling has no intention of parting ways with Chelsea unless the terms are favorable.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sterling_could_join_Crystal_Palace\"><\/span>Sterling could join Crystal Palace<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-414x286.jpg.webp 414w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-630x435.jpg.webp 630w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-768x530.jpg.webp 768w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-770x531.jpg.webp 770w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-900x621.jpg.webp 900w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-1200x828.jpg.webp 1200w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-1536x1060.jpg.webp 1536w,https:\/\/icdn.caughtoffside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/chelsea-v-fc-internazionale-pre-season-friendly-1-2048x1414.jpg.webp 2048w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width:1230px) 770px, (min-width:1020px) 630px, (min-width:900px) 880px, (min-width:680px) 97vw, (min-width:414px) 414px, 100vw\"\/><\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Raheem Sterling of Chelsea in action (Photo by Eddie Keogh\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He earns around \u20ac344,000 a week and wants stability for his family before choosing his next club.
