Scouting Report & Player Insights
Raheem Sterling is an England international left-sided forward whose game is built on quick feet, sharp acceleration, and the instinct to cut inside onto his stronger right foot. Once a mainstay of Manchester City's title-winning sides and a Chelsea marquee signing, his career has cooled through loan spells including a stint away from Stamford Bridge, and he now looks to rediscover consistency at Feyenoord in the Eredivisie. He remains capable of turning games with a burst of pace or a clinical near-post finish, even if his end product has grown less reliable in recent seasons.
Won multiple Premier League titles with Manchester City.
Long-time England international with over 80 caps.
Made a high-profile move from Manchester City to Chelsea in 2022.
