Chelsea are reportedly prepared to cover a significant portion of Raheem Sterling wages to facilitate a move to Fulham this summer. The 30-year-old winger, who earns around £325,000 per week, is no longer in the plans of new manager Enzo Maresca. And the club is actively looking to offload him as part of a wider effort to reduce their wage bill.

Fulham are interested in bringing Sterling to Craven Cottage. But they are unwilling to meet his full wage demands. As a result, negotiations are underway with Chelsea expected to subsidise as much as 50% or more of his salary to complete the deal. Chelsea are also seeking a transfer fee in the region of £20 million. Though they may have to compromise to push the transfer through.
Sterling endured a difficult loan spell at Arsenal last season. Contributing just one goal and five assists in 28 appearances. With his contract at Chelsea running until 2027. The club is eager to avoid a long-term financial commitment to a player who no longer fits into their future plans.
The move to Fulham could offer Sterling a chance to revive his Premier League career. But final terms will depend on Chelsea’s willingness to share the financial burden.
