A rumour raheem sterling back in squad. shows that it was prev manager who did not rate him and booted him out but club welcome him back now.

How much longer does RS have on his contract?
Will the club try and strengthen us at CB or anyhwere else on the pitch (eg GK; Striker) this window?

JBS, good Sterling question. I can’t remember if it’s one and half or two and half years.

Thanks Tom. will try and find out re RS contract. Non playing player at CFC bad for him and us but he didn't do well at Arsenal and it is hard to see how he could come back into CFC squad now and get much game time if any. And who woud back this?

Sterling gad two years left on his contract in Sep[tember 2025 so presume it expires end of August 2027.

JBS, thanks for the clarification. So only 18 months max to go. Of course we could extend his contract. ?.

Tom. that’s good news, we only have to pay him £25 million in wages to the end of his contract ?.

Better than it was three and a half years ago and who knows a club might still take part of his costs off our books.
18 Jan 2026 21:37:20
Tom, I don’t understand your logic: over his contract period he will receive £80 million in wages: how much do you seriously believe we will get from another club . Offer him 10 mill to**** off.

My logic is, we have already paid three and half years of his wages and it’s likely that amount for account purposes has already been written off. Therefore we have a further eighteen months to pay as a maximum. That maximum (with luck) could be reduced by a sale, loan or negotiated release.
