Arsenal was one of the Premier League’s busiest teams in the later part of transfer deadline day, and their commitment to Raheem Sterling’s salary was even smaller than originally believed.
Just before the transfer window closed, Raheem Sterling, an England winger, became Arsenal’s most notable acquisition. He joined the team on a Chelsea loan.
Goalie Neto of Bournemouth also signed a loan agreement with Arsenal that would last until the end of the current campaign.
After joining Fulham and Southampton, respectively, Reiss Nelson and Aaron Ramsdale seem to have been replaced by Sterling and Neto.
Ramsdale has completed a permanent move to the Saints, while Nelson has joined the Cottagers on loan.
Eddie Nketiah also completed a late permanent transfer from Arsenal to Crystal Palace, a rival team in London.
Paul Merson, for example, has already asserted that Chelsea was keen to let Sterling go and that the Blues put themselves in a precarious situation from which Arsenal could profit.
New financial information, however, indicates that the Sterling to Arsenal deal may be even more affordable than previously thought.
TBR Football relayed Miguel Delaney’s claim on X on Friday night, which stated that Arsenal will not be paying any loan costs for Sterling.
Furthermore, Fabrizio Romano stated during his late-night Playback live-stream on deadline day on Friday night that the Gunners will only be paying for less than half of his salary.
This would entail giving less than £162,500 each week, which is a negligibly small amount for the Gunners to contribute to Sterling’s £325,000 weekly income.
According to a recent revelation by writer Steve Kay, Arsenal would be paying substantially less than that, only £100,000 per week. Why it makes perfect sense for Arsenal to sign Raheem Sterling
It seems like Arsenal made a huge mistake in acquiring a top-tier, Premier League-tested player who has so much to offer the Gunners.
In addition to competing and providing protection for Bukayo Saka on the right, Sterling can play up front when necessary.
Additionally, Arteta and Sterling were teammates at Manchester City, so the manager of Arsenal is aware of what to expect from the Chelsea loanee.
All things considered, the deal makes complete sense and ought to elevate the Gunners. Furthermore, he has shown to be a true value.
