Ex-Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling has been arrested on suspicion of drug driving this week.<\/p>\n
The 31-year-old\u2019s career has suffered a sad decline over recent years, with the 31-year-old failing to replicate the levels he reached at Man City since leaving the Premier League side in 2022.<\/p>\n
Sterling<\/strong> was tipped to be a huge success at Chelsea, but the transfer proved a disaster, and he was only a bit-part player for Arsenal during last season\u2019s loan spell.<\/p>\n In January this year, Sterling had his Chelsea<\/strong> contract terminated by mutual consent, and a few weeks later he joined Eredivisie side Feyenoord on a deal until the end of this season.<\/p>\n The experienced forward, who has 82 England caps, has one assist in his eight appearances for Feyenoord, but he finds himself in hot water after being arrested this week.<\/p>\n READ: Slot can fix Liverpool in four steps without any new wingers; seven PL No.10\u2019s \u2018far better\u2019 than Fernandes It emerged on Saturday morning that he was arrested on Thursday morning on suspicion of drug driving after his Lamborghini crashed into barriers on the M3 in Hampshire.<\/p>\n Sky Sports<\/em> have reported that his arrest is \u2018under suspicion\u2019, while a statement from Hampshire Police has revealed four reasons for his arrest.<\/p>\n The Hampshire Police statement given to The Athletic read: \u201cJust before 9am on Thursday, we received reports that a Lamborghini was in collision with barriers on the M3 southbound, close to the Minley Interchange.<\/p>\n \u201cNo other vehicles were involved and no injuries were reported.<\/p>\n \u201cThe driver, a 31-year-old man, from Berkshire, has been arrested on suspicion of driving a vehicle whilst unfit through drugs, driving dangerously, possession of a Class C drug and failing to provide a specimen. He has been bailed while our enquiries continue.\u201d<\/p>\n READ MORE: Five reasons why \u20181-0 to the Arsenal\u2019 is inevitable in the Champions League final Earlier this month, European football expert Andy Brassell explained why he thinks Sterling couldn\u2019t be blamed for opting to retire at the end of this season.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve seen, especially with the Niklas Sule thing, with him retiring at 30, that sometimes fairness is not always part of the fan and media reception. It\u2019s really tough,\u201d Brassell told talkSPORT.<\/p>\n READ NEXT: Do we all owe Lego Head Mikel Arteta an apology? \u201cEspecially when you\u2019ve previously hit huge heights, and you\u2019re expected to get up to that sort of level again. Elite-level football is not great for patience anyway.<\/p>\n \u201cI just wonder, maybe, whether it\u2019s in the Netherlands or somewhere else, maybe a club that wasn\u2019t challenging for trophies would be the best spot for (Sterling) at the moment.<\/p>\n \u201cWhether he can mentally adjust to that, I think, is a viable question because he\u2019s been a guy who\u2019s played big matches for big things throughout his entire career.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd maybe, I don\u2019t know, like Niklas Sule, he just decides, \u2018I can\u2019t do this, it\u2019s too hard.\u2019 And I don\u2019t think you blame him for that.<\/p>\n \u201cHis career, whatever happens next, has been an amazing success, and he\u2019s done brilliantly. So, look, only he can decide that.<\/p>\n \u201cBut there would be a lot of demand and expectation on him for him to get it right all over again from the Dutch media if he were to stay.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
