Raheem Sterling shared how he feels about Chelsea appointing Enzo Maresca as manager
Enzo Maresca to Take the Helm at Chelsea
Enzo Maresca is set to become Chelsea’s new manager, stepping into a role that will see him working with a host of talented players. Among those is Raheem Sterling, provided the winger remains at Stamford Bridge this summer.
Raheem Sterling’s Current Situation
Sterling lost his starting spot under Mauricio Pochettino towards the season’s end, leading to speculation that he might be sacrificed to make room for new signings. This is a situation that Maresca and the club’s sporting directors will need to address soon.
Maresca’s Contract and Sterling’s Hopes

According to Fabrizio Romano, Maresca has agreed to an initial five-year deal with Chelsea. Journalist Dean Jones has recently reported that Chelsea is eyeing Crystal Palace duo Michael Olise and Eberechi Eze. To bring one of them in, Chelsea might need to offload a current attacker, with Sterling being a potential candidate.
Jones mentioned that Sterling, now 29, is hopeful that Maresca’s arrival could give him another chance at Chelsea. On social media platform X, he wrote: “Raheem Sterling’s situation at Chelsea to come under the spotlight again. Still wants to stay at Chelsea and hopeful a(nother) new manager gives him that chance. But Chelsea are looking at options like Olise/Eze and if another attacker is to arrive, someone has to go.”
Potential Fresh Start for Sterling

Maresca’s appointment could represent a fresh start for Sterling. Under Pochettino, Sterling fell out of favor, starting just one of Chelsea’s final five games of the season. If Maresca decides that sacrificing Sterling is necessary to bring in a player like Olise, it is a decision that will need careful consideration.
The Talent of Michael Olise
Olise, one of the Premier League’s most dangerous wingers, is seven years younger than Sterling. This season, the 22-year-old scored 10 goals and provided six assists in just 19 top-flight appearances, showcasing his devastating potential.
In conclusion, Maresca’s tenure at Chelsea could herald significant changes, with Sterling’s future at the club hanging in the balance as new talents are considered for acquisition.
