Raheem Sterling to stay in London? Three clubs in the running to sign Chelsea outcast following shock Enzo Maresca snub

Sterling received a shocking snub from new Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca last weekend after he was dropped from the Blues' squad for their Premier League opener against Manchester City. The England international was subsequently told by the Italian coach that he was not in the plans for the season. Sterling is now training alone away from Cobham and has reached an agreement with Chelsea that he will leave the club this summer.

The Daily Mail has now reported that Sterling has invited interest from Crystal Palace and Aston Villa regarding a move this summer before the end of the transfer window. As per the report, the Eagles and the Villains are still trying to work out whether the deal would indeed be a possibility with the transfer window set to close in just over a week. The former Manchester City star's reported £325,000-per-week wages are said to be the biggest obstacle that could hinder either side from signing Sterling this summer.

The report has also suggested that Juventus have reignited their interest in signing Sterling this summer after it was clarified that he will indeed be leaving Chelsea. However, the Bianconeri will only be able to afford Sterling if they complete the potential sale of Federico Chiesa to Barcelona or any other suitor.

It is highly possible that Sterling may accept a significant pay cut to sign with another club this summer as the 29-year-old wants regular playing time, something which he will not get at Chelsea. It has also been reported that he will likely look to remain in England, hence, the move to Juventus may not be on his mind at the moment.
