Chelsea outcast Raheem Sterling is reportedly attracting interest from elsewhere in the Premier League. The Blues have made it no secret that they are keen to offload the forward this summer, and he remains among the stars firmly in the shop window at Stamford Bridge.
Sterling has struggled since joining Chelsea in 2022, and his loan spell at Arsenal only further highlighted why his career is in need of a revival if he is to reassert himself as a top talent and put himself in the frame for a return to international football.
The 30-year-old was widely tipped for a move abroad as a result, with a change of scenery viewed as the ideal way to help the ex-Manchester City star get his career back on track. However, remaining in the Premier League appears to be an option too.
According to talkSPORT, West Ham are keeping very close tabs on Sterling's situation, with Graham Potter being a keen admirer of the versatile forward after developing a 'good working relationship' with him during his stint as Blues boss.
The Hammers aren't alone in their interest though, as Fulham and Crystal Palace are also keen to acquire his services - and Sterling's preference to remain in London would give them all a genuine chance to secure his signature. If the winger has a change of heart and wants to head abroad, Juventus are lying in wait.
Sterling is currently training with a group of Chelsea players which the club are looking to loan out, though a permanent departure would be favoured.
With Jamie Gittens already arriving at Stamford Bridge from Borussia Dortmund and both Xavi Simons and Alejandro Garnacho being eyed, Sterling is at the bottom of Enzo Maresca's pecking order and thus appears unlikely to ever have the chance to turn things around at the club.
It remains to be seen whether he will push to be reunited with Potter at West Ham or whether he is open to entertaining talks with Fulham or Crystal Palace - the latter will be playing European football next season, may that be Europa League or European Conference League, which could prove attractive if Oliver Glasner's side make a concrete approach.
