Maresca's message to Sterling
Enzo Maresca has reiterated to Raheem Sterling that he doesn't have a future at Chelsea.
The Blues boss said: "“Raheem is a fantastic person, a fantastic guy, he trains very well.
"The only thing is that every manager has different ideas.
"I said in terms of the kind of winger, he is not one I like.
“But it doesn't mean he is not a good player. I think the history and numbers speak for Raheem.
"My advice - he knows exactly what he has to do. He doesn't need my advice."
Liverpool target breaks silence
FEDERICO CHIESA revealed his excitement ahead of a shock move to Liverpool.
The Italy winger is arriving from Juventus for £10million, with £2.5m in add-ons, and could face Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.
Chiesa said: “I can’t wait to become a Liverpool player. Me and my family are so happy.”
The capture of Chiesa, 26, looks a real bargain despite a string of injuries over the last two years.
He scored nine goals in 33 Serie A games last season but was frozen out by new coach Thiago Motta as he entered the final year of his Juventus deal.
Juve plan to put some of the funds towards a move for Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho.
