"The 41-year-old Englishman, who replaced Enzo Maresca last week, is working through an extensive list of tasks after joining mid-season from Strasbourg, which shares ownership with Chelsea. One priority is to speak to Sterling and Disasi, who joined during the 2023-24 season for 47.5m and 38.5m respectively, but are currently training at different times, on a separate pitch and in a separate building from the main squad."
"I will have conversations with them. We're in January, as you know. "Raheem's had an outstanding career. I've got huge respect for him. Axel is someone I've really, really liked as a player for a long time. "Honestly, I have to have a conversation with them. I have to have a conversation with the club. I'm being genuinely honest. I literally have got to work through a list of priorities. I will do in the next few days."
Liam Rosenior replaced Enzo Maresca and joined mid-season from Strasbourg, inheriting an extensive list of tasks. Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi were signed in 2023-24 for 47.5m and 38.5m and are currently training separately from the main squad while remaining on the transfer list. Both declined potential loan moves over the summer. Rosenior intends to speak with the players and club leadership to determine next steps. Sterling is attracting interest from Napoli; Roma and Lyon have explored moves for Disasi. Chelsea face a FIFA limit of six overseas loans and would need to cancel an existing loan to allow either player to move temporarily.
