Raheem Sterling has referenced his 'ups and downs' as a Manchester City player in a farewell message ahead of his transfer to Chelsea.
Sterling has called time on his City career after 337 appearances, and he will join Chelsea this summer in a move costing around £50m. City have added Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez, meaning Sterling's chances of playing time would have been limited next season.
Confirming his City exit, Sterling said he is a stronger person for the harder periods of the last seven years, as he paid tribute to his teammates, coaches and supporters at the Etihad.
