Former Chelsea star, Raheem Sterling, has completed a move to Dutch side Feyenoord on a free transfer.
The England international has penned a deal with the Rotterdam club that runs until the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.
Sterling parted ways with Chelsea last month by mutual consent, ending his 18-month remaining contract.
Feyenoord’s head coach, Robin van Persie, played a pivotal role in persuading Sterling to make the move to the Netherlands.
“As a free agent, I’ve had, for the first time in a long time, the opportunity to control the next step in my career. I wanted to take my time to speak with clubs and their head coaches to better understand the role they envisioned for me and ensure that I can add real value in this next chapter,” Sterling said.
“Having spoken in great detail with Robin van Persie, I’m confident that Feyenoord is a place I can be happy and establish myself as a valued member of the team.
“Playing abroad is a whole new challenge for me – and one I’m ready to embrace. Honestly, I’m just excited to get started.”
Sterling spent the previous season on loan at Arsenal, featuring in 17 Premier League games.
His final appearance for Chelsea came in May 2024, when he netted the decisive goal in a win over Bournemouth.
