Guardiola Leaves Door Open For Sterling Exit Amid Barca Rumours

By Daily Sports on November 10, 2021

Pep Guardiola is not inviting interest from Barcelona in Raheem Sterling, but the Manchester City boss remains “convinced” that the Liga giants could land the England international if an approach were to be made.

Much-publicised financial difficulties at Camp Nou have forced the Blaugrana into parting with a number of prized assets, with books needing to be balanced before they look to reinforce again.

There has, however, been talk of a number of targets being identified for January, with City forward Sterling among those said to be registering on the recruitment radar at Camp Nou.

Competition for places is fierce at the Etihad, though, and a record-breaking £100 million ($136m) was invested in Jack Grealish by the reigning Premier League champions over the summer.

Sterling is no longer guaranteed a starting berth and has also stopped short of committing to fresh terms with City that would extend his association with the club beyond 2023.
