João Félix and Raheem Sterling Left Out of Chelsea’s Club World Cup Squad

Chelsea have officially omitted João Félix and Raheem Sterling from their squad for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup, signaling potential exits for both players as the club explores options in the transfer market.

The decision comes as part of a broader restructuring at Stamford Bridge, with the club aiming to streamline its squad ahead of the new season. Sources within Chelsea suggest that neither player is seen as central to the long-term project under the current technical direction.

João Félix, who joined on loan from Atlético Madrid and later signed permanently, has struggled to fully adapt to Chelsea’s system. Similarly, Raheem Sterling has faced inconsistent form and fitness issues, leading to limited impact since his move from Manchester City.

Club officials are reportedly exploring transfer or loan opportunities for both players, with interest already emerging from clubs in Spain, Saudi Arabia, and the Premier League. Chelsea fans will be watching closely to see how these developments affect the club’s performance and transfer strategy going forward.
