Former Arsenal star, Ian Wright, has named Chelsea striker Raheem Sterling as the player he wanted to join sign for Arsenal last summer.

According to Merson, Sterling, who joined Chelsea in a £50m deal from Man City, can’t be happy with his move to the west London side so far.

The England star was unhappy with his playing time at Man City under Pep Guardiola.

While his fellow Man City teammate Gabriel Jesus signed a deal with Arsenal, Sterling joined Chelsea amid interest from the Gunners.

“I have got to ask you, with Arsenal coming up at the weekend, I was praying that there is truth in the talk about you coming,” Wright told Sterling on Premier League Productions.

“But it did not happen – I got so psyched up about thinking of you in the red kit.”

Wright added, “You have got Pulisic and Sterling, who are supposedly meant to help Chalobah and Cucurella, but it was not happening. I could not understand it. There is no way he can be happy playing that role.

“Especially when you look at what he’s done at City and the team he was playing in – everything was focused on offence for him. It must be really strange and tough for him to have to play in a new position like that. I hope they can sort that out for him.”
