Arsenal’s Sporting Director, Edu on why he signed Sterling, said: “It makes a lot of sense to have someone like Raheem.

“He has experience, he understands more than anyone the league and he has played in the Champions League many times, so we really needed that”.

Sterling joined the Gunners on a season-long loan from Chelsea, with transfer now subject to the completion of regulatory processes.

“I am super excited to be signing for Arsenal. I can’t wait to see you all [Gunners] at the Emirates. It’s an amazing stadium. I can’t wait to see you guys to show you exactly what I can do,” Sterling said.
