West Ham United eye Raheem Sterling transfer after shocking Chelsea revelation. Raheem Sterling, who has been linked with a move to West Ham and Crystal Palace, has been left “frustrated” and “shocked” by how Chelsea have treated him, according to HITC.
The news outlet reported on 18 August that the England international was disappointed with the manner he was left out of the squad against Manchester City and is now considering his future with an exit ahead of 30 August very much on the cards. Both the Hammers and Palace have been linked with him in this window while the likes of Bayern Munich and Juventus have also been spoken to.
West Ham should consider taking a punt on Raheem Sterling. Signing the 29-year-old would significantly bolster the Hammers’ attack, bringing a wealth of Premier League experience and proven goal-scoring ability to the squad.
His versatility across the front line would give Julen Lopetegui a chance to use him in different roles, providing a cutting edge in their quest to finish as high as possible in the Premier League.
Recent developments, including Chelsea’s clear indication that Sterling is not in their long-term plans, coupled with his frustration over his treatment and squad exclusion, make his departure from Stamford Bridge more likely.
This situation aligns perfectly with West Ham’s interest, as they look to capitalise on his availability. Moreover, Sterling may have a desire to stay in London and his age, where he still has a few more years of high-level football ahead, makes him an attractive proposition for West Ham, who could offer him a role where he’s central to their ambitions.

As the Blues want him gone as soon as possible, he’s not likely to be an expensive signing for the club either.
In other West Ham news, the Hammers are planning to raid their arch rivals to secure a shocking deadline-busting transfer.
