Raheem Sterling drops huge Chelsea team news hint ahead of Manchester City EFL Cup reunion

Chelsea star Raheem Sterling may have dropped a hint that he will be involved in the Blues' clash against Manchester City in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night. The match will be the first time the England international has faced off against his former side, having left them for a switch to Stamford Bridge in the summer.

Sterling hasn't quite hit the ground running yet, being played in several positions that he hasn't usually played through his career. The latest switch for the 27-year-old has been at wing-back, where new boss Graham Potter has looked to get the most out of him on the flanks.

"He’s at a prime age, he’s got all the quality you see every day in training and the desire is there," Potter said of the forward amid a tough run of form. "He wants to help the team. He’s suffering with the team, just like the rest of us are. We all want to do better and all want to improve our performance, and we want to improve how the team functions.
