Unexpected rejection! Ligue 1 club turns down Raheem Sterling

The career of the high-profile English forward has hit an unexpected dead end.

Details: 31-year-old English winger Raheem Sterling, currently a free agent, has encountered unexpected difficulties in his search for a new club. According to French journalist Sébastien Denis, the star's services were offered to Ligue 1 side Le Havre, but the Normandy club's management categorically rejected the proposal.

Le Havre representatives justified their decision by pointing out that the squad already has enough players for that position. In addition, Sterling was offered to another French top-flight club, but they also turned him down.

In January 2026, Sterling terminated his contract with Chelsea by mutual consent, after which he signed a short-term deal with Feyenoord in February. Having played the second half of the 2025/26 season in the Dutch league, the forward has been without a club since July 1, 2026.

It is worth noting that, at the peak of his career, Raheem Sterling made 82 appearances for the England national team and also won the Premier League title four times with Manchester City.

Reminder: Concerns are mounting over Lionel Mpasi, who was carried off on a stretcher during the Ligue 1 match against Brest
