Raheem Sterling Transfer from Chelsea to Napoli
According to The Sun, Kevin de Bruyne is attempting to persuade Raheem Sterling to join Serie A champions Napoli. Sterling's contract with Chelsea was terminated by mutual consent last week and he is seeking a fresh start. Talks with Napoli are in progress, and Sterling is hopeful of a reunion with his former teammate. The player is willing to reduce his wage demands to facilitate a move abroad. This development follows comments from Napoli’s sporting director, Giovanni Manna, who mentioned last week the player’s significant financial expectations would complicate a deal. Last summer, Napoli attempted to arrange a loan for Sterling when he was earning approximately £325,000 a week, and while that attempt was unsuccessful, there is a chance it could be revived on reduced terms.
