Pep Guardiola breaks silence on Raheem Sterling to Chelsea transfer after £55m deal

Pep Guardiola has wished Raheem Sterling all the best after the England international completed a £55million move to Chelsea recently. Earlier this month, the Blues confirmed the move – £45m plus £10m in add-ons – as their first signing of the summer.

Sterling joined Chelsea on a five-year contract and stated his excitement in being back in London, where he was raised as a child. He said: "First and foremost, it’s a pleasure to be here.

"I’ve obviously achieved a lot in my career so far, but there is still so much more to achieve and I’m really looking forward to doing that in a Chelsea shirt, under Thomas’s management. London is my home and where it all started for me, and it’s amazing I now have the opportunity to play in front of friends and family week in, week out at Stamford Bridge. I’m really looking forward to meeting the fans there soon.
