Barcelona are aiming at Sterling!
Catalan Barcelona apart from Dani Olmo also want to sign Raheem Sterling.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Leipzig midfielder Dani Olmo and Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling may soon end up at Barcelona. While everything is more or less clear with Olmo's transfer, because he is a product of La Masia, then how Barca will lure Sterling is an open question.
The Catalans' interest in Sterling was reported by journalist Oriol Domenech, referring to the fact that Barcelona had saved up money to sign the Englishman. But we have big doubts about this transfer.
The thing is that Barca's current results do not inspire confidence in the coaching staff. Talks about the dismissal of Ronald Koeman are spreading with greater force, but Laporta understands that for this to happen, the Dutchman will have to be paid compensation of 12 million euros until June next year. Therefore, Blaugrana have to postpone such a decision.
On the other hand, we can understand Sterling's desire to change clubs. Since the beginning of the current season, he began to lose his place in the starting line-up, playing an average of half an hour per match. Guardiola quite seriously marinated Sterling on the bench during the game against Wycombe Wanderers in the English League Cup, where the Cityzens won 6-1 and Raheem made only one assist.
Considering that Grealish has come to the team, on whom the stake is being made, Sterling should leave before it's too late. The guy is only 26 years old, and he runs the risk of spending the best years of his career in the matches of the first stages of the League Cup or entering the pitch on the last 20-30 minutes without bringing benefit.
Therefore, a shake-up with a move to Barcelona would be a great decision for the winger, but would he want to go for demotion and deliberately agree to a lower salary than what he has now? The only question of the football player's assessment of his own capabilities remains. Therefore, if he does not raise his bar, he can still succeed.
