Gary Neville warns this player not to sign for Manchester United

Raheem Sterling joined Chelsea in a £47.5m deal in 2022, but the England international is now keen on leaving Chelsea before transfer deadline.

Sterling is no longer needed at Chelsea, as new boss Enzo Maresca doesn’t see the 29-year-old as part of his plans for the season.

Sterling has been linked with Manchester United and Arsenal, and Gary Neville has warned Sterling against signing for either Manchester United or Arsenal.

Gary Neville doesn’t think Sterling is needed at Manchester United or Arsenal.

He said: “I love Raheem Sterling obviously worked very closely with him when I was there, I’m not quite sure why at the moment Manchester United would see that as a piece of business looking at their squad.

“They’ve got players they need to try and get the best out of. They’ve of got Amad, Antony, Rashford and Garnacho who play in those areas.

“If they’re losing faith in one or some of those players maybe they’d sign Raheem Sterling but it doesn’t strike me at this moment in time as being an essential signing for Manchester United. They’ve got four players they need to get into form and get going themselves.”

On the prospect of Sterling reviving his career at title-chasing Arsenal, Neville added: “Arsenal have got Jesus, Trossard and Martinelli who can play on that left side you’ve got Saka on the other side who his so reliable and ever-present.

“It doesn’t stand out and strike as making sense. I can see why Chelsea want him out and the situation over the last few weeks will mean they’re desperate to get him out.”
