The former Manchester City winger's contract at Stamford Bridge runs until 2027. He earns a reported salary of around £300,000 per week and Chelsea are likely to slap a lofty price tag on the winger should any offers arrive this summer, making a move away difficult.
WHAT NEXT FOR STERLING?
The 29-year-old's side have been drawn alongside his former side Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final and will likely play against Pep Guardiola's men on April 20. The winger will have two free weeks coming up to train with Mauricio Pochettino's team as he's not been called up to the current England squad.
