News about Raheem Sterling

An engineering student who abused England striker Callum Wilson on social media because he passed the ball to a white teammate has dodged jail. Ibukun Quadri, 21, called Wilson a '****' during England's 2022 FIFA World Cup opener with Iran on 21 November 2022. Quadri was 19 when he sent the message to Wilson, who replaced England captain Harry Kane in the 76th minute at the Khalifa International Stadium in Qatar. England had scored through Jude Bellingham , Bukayo Saka , Raheem Sterling and Marcus Rashford, before Wilson pulled the ball back for Jack Grealish to finish. But the Warwick University student said: 'Wilson you are a **** for that.'

Mail Sport understands that a close friend of the top-flight star, who has represented his country at Under 21 level, raised the alarm after spotting him surrounded by canisters of illegal nitrous oxide at his city centre flat. It is thought that the player, who we are choosing not to name, had fallen off the wagon after attending rehab to try and kick his habit. Paramedics quickly arrived at the scene, carried out checks and delivered a stark warning to the footballer, who is said to have made repeated attempts to fight off an addiction that has put both his health and his career in danger. Police also attended but are not thought to have launched any criminal proceedings.

The defender will link up with his new club in July and have a presentation at the club's iconic Maracana stadium in Rio de Janeiro, the venue of the 2014 World Cup final. Silva, 39, revealed that he will leave the Blues at the end of his contract this summer after four years at Stamford Bridge.

Littler (pictured) romped to a Premier League night victory for a third time this season, despite being public enemy No 1 as he was booed entering the arena due to his connections to Manchester United. He wasn't shy to bite back, reminding Liverpool supporters in attendance that they had lost to rivals Everton on Wednesday night. He has made no secret of his love for United, regularly mentioning his team in interviews, receiving invites to visit the club and even throwing a few arrows against some of his Red Devils heroes.

Fans have claimed that Cole Palmer should 'swap salaries' with Raheem Sterling after discovering the former's weekly wage at Chelsea.  Palmer has been one of the standout players in the Premier League season and sits joint-top of the goalscoring charts after 20 goals from 28 appearances for the Blues.  No one could've predicted just how well the former Manchester City star would have settled in west London - perhaps not even Palmer himself!

For Manchester United fans, it was the biggest of let-offs. For everybody else, it was yet more evidence VAR is sucking the joy out of football. Coventry City denied one of the greatest moments in FA Cup history - and one of the most miraculous comebacks of all-time - by mere inches. In the days before technology, Victor Torp's winner in the dying seconds of extra time would have been heralded as yet more magic from the world's greatest cup competition. It could well have also sealed Erik ten Hag's fate as United boss. But the ruthless accuracy of VAR and its offside lines stopped wild Coventry celebrations in their tracks and ultimately allowed United passage to the final.

EXCLUSIVE BY KIERAN GILL: Raheem Sterling has returned to training after being sidelined by a bout of food poisoning, boosting Chelsea's attacking options as they aim to dump Manchester City out of their second cup competition in the space of four days. Sterling's former club were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid on Wednesday and must try to overcome that draining defeat on penalties in time for Saturday's FA Cup semi-final showdown at Wembley Stadium. Sterling's last appearance was as a substitute in the 4-3 victory over Manchester United two weeks ago, a comeback which became a Premier League classic when Cole Palmer scored in the 10th and 11th minutes of stoppage time.

Chelsea's financial challenges have been laid bare after their wage bill soared beyond the £400million mark last season. The Stamford Bridge club were second only to Manchester City last season when it came to paying players and staff - but didn't come close to replicating the success. While City's £422.9m wage bill included many bonuses because they won the Treble, Chelsea spent vast sums on their bloated squad while finishing 12th in the Premier League table.

European champion and pundit Jamie Carragher sparked controversy this week when he urged up-and-coming players to hold off on having children and focus on the football. The 46-year-old, who rose through Liverpool's academy and went on to win multiple FA Cups, Football League Cups and the coveted Champions League title, said on his podcast young players should wait until heir thirties before having kids to avoid distractions from the game. The former Liverpool star said: 'I do love the fact that my son not saw me play, can remember going to games, and at a cup final at the end, he was actually on the pitch - I think it was in 2012, towards the end of my career. It is something nice to look back [on].

Known recreationally as 'laughing gas', 'hippy crack' or 'nos' the drug inhaled, commonly via balloon, to create a temporary feeling of relaxation and euphoria. But now nitrous oxide - sometimes called 'laughing gas', 'hippy crack' or 'nos' - is quickly going out of fashion. Usage rates have halved in the wake of the pandemic, official figures suggest. The downturn comes amid a spate of deaths linked to the substance, sold in little silver cannisters that litter the streets, and typically inhaled though a balloon just like helium. Business student Ellen Mercer, 24, from Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, became the latest confirmed casualty of nitrous oxide use. Yesterday an inquest heard how Ms Mercer, who died in hospital last February, was ordering huge bottles of the drug up to three times a day. Some former addicts have shared how they went through up to 500 cannisters in a weekend, describing it as 'more addictive than cocaine'.

Rodri is expected to have a lucrative new deal that will push the Spanish star to the top earners in the Premier League, according to reports. Rodri, 27, a defensive midfielder, has been with the Treble winners since 2027 on wages of about £180,000-per-week. However, according to The Sun, the city needs to stretch it and raise his salary into the £300,000-per-week range.

As he had failed to move the house, the former Manchester United manager slashed a quarter of a million pounds off the value of the Cheshire mansion in February. Following his wife's death, Lady Cathy, who died aged 84 after 58 years of marriage to the former boss in October, the 82-year-old had put the house up for auction for £3.5 million. Lady Cathy had been referred to as 'his bedrock,' before the pair met in 1964, and many well-known celebrities from the football and further afield attended her funeral.

JACK GAUGHAN: After the Manchester City manager's discussion with Jack Grealish on the Etihad pitch, Pep Guardiola has fired some critics of his leadership style. Guardiola brought Grealish to one side after a goalless draw with Arsenal on Sunday and given instructions on how he might have hit Mikel Arteta's back line. Guardiola has often used it during his eight years at City, with Raheem Sterling once preaching immediately after an FA Cup victory at Wembley.

After the Chelsea fan's booing Raheem Sterling, Mauricio Pochettino told Noni Madueke to 'be cautious.' During the FA Cup quarter-finals against Leicester on March 17, the Blues fans cheered on Pochettino's team. Chelsea advanced to the semi-finals, but it was a day to forget for the sterling, who had missed a slew of great opportunities and was booed by his own supporters on three separate occasions.

With his Atletico Paranaense team drawing 0-0 in a state semi-final match, the midfielder, 38, was aghast as the official lumbered in the way. Fernandinho grit his teeth in a dramatic way after the mishap and held his arms up and down. He proceeded to put his head in his hands and hunch over the harmless omission that had been largely dismissed at the time.

Rainhill High School's senior staff member has since apologised and confirmed that their choice of words was "inappropriate." According to the Liverpool Echo, grievous parents, some of whom survived the 1989 disaster that killed 97 fans, pleaded with the school, while others called the Hillsborough Survivors Support Alliance for assistance. The secondary school and sixth form are part of the Liverpool FC Academy Education Centre in Merseyside, where the club's under-18 players are trained. Both former and present club stars, such as Raheem Sterling, Curtis Jones, and Trent Alexander-Arnold, have all attended.

BY JACK GAUGHAN: It's a new normal at Chelsea under new ownership, with disenchanted fan clubs more likely to errand than cheer at the moment. Raheem Sterling was arrested during a Leicester game, missing a point and booed by a minority as Mauricio Pochettino hooked him when progression remained in the balance. Pochettino has his displeasures, as shown by a group of talented yet inexperienced players thrown together for substantial money in the Premier League's bottom half.

More Britons under the age of 30 are earning more than a million a year than ever before, with young footballers and pop singers accounted for the highest salaries. Parts of the increase in the number of young millionaires is attributed to increases in the salaries of television actors and sports celebrities.

According to accountancy firm Lubbock Fine, this is an increase from 770 in 2021/2022.

The remarks were made in an article in which Webber was discussing his impending attempt to scale Mount Everest for charity next month.

Fans have slammed the American sports giant for converting the traditional red cross into a one with navy, light blue, and purple on the shirt, which costs up to £125. However, it is far from the only scandal to have engulfed Nike in recent years, with the £122 billion company finding itself in hot water over everything from transgender rights to replica football kits. The company is also struggling with an exodus of some of the company's best talent, with Harry Kane, Jack Grealish, and Raheem Sterling among the actors who have changed to new sponsors in recent months.

SIMON JORDAN: Financial control, such as it is, may lead to the demise of the Premier League if we are not careful. If we've gotten to the point where you can't believe the table until the accountants and lawyers have ruled, the excitement of the competition has descended on us. VAR, another so-called innovation, is another prime example of a good idea being mishandled. We can't believe the league table until a group of faceless attorneys have spent months in tribunals, in the same way that we can no longer properly honor goals until the traffic wardens of the referee fraternity have approved them. With all this mess, football is in danger of killing itself. If the game goes down, these road viewing numbers and excitement may decrease, and the game will then be facing an existential threat. We have to be extremely cautious with what we're doing to our game here.

During Chelsea's 4-2 FA Cup quarter-final victory over Leicester on Sunday, the 29-year-old wasbooed by fans three times. It was a day to forget for the winger, who failed a number of chances and revealed a public apology to fans on social media for missing a penalty during the game. Fans of the Manchester City singer's £50 million transfer in 2022 have been critical of the sterling, and it has been rumor that clubs in the Saudi Pro League may be able to afford him a lucrative move.
