Raheem Sterling is once again absent from the Chelsea lineup, and Romano says Boehly “accepted” his £30 million bid.
According to rumors, Raheem Sterling has not been added to Chelsea’s roster for their Europa Conference League play-off matchup with Servette.
The 29-year-old Sterling was not included in the Blues’ matchday lineup for their Premier League opener against Manchester City, his previous team.

Enzo Maresca’s decision was quickly followed by the announcement that the England winger is “seeking clarity” regarding his future.
A few days before to being benched, Maresca praised Sterling as a “important player” after he participated in all six of Chelsea’s preseason games.
In a statement released on Sunday, the player’s representation stated that Raheem Sterling has a three-year contract with Chelsea Football Club.
He came back to England two weeks ahead of schedule to work on individual training, and he’s had a wonderful preseason working with the new coach, with whom he’s forged a strong working rapport.
We expected Raheem to play in this weekend’s match because he was included in the official club pre-match material this week and he is, as always, devoted to giving Chelsea FC and the supporters, whom he holds in the highest esteem, his best effort.
In regards to Raheem’s future at Chelsea FC, the camp has always had positive communication and assurances from the team, so we look forward to learning more details of the current state of affairs.
“Until then, we’ll keep encouraging Raheem to have a successful start to the new season.”
Raheem Sterling will once more watch Chelsea from his couch, albeit he won’t watch
They are presumably drafting another statement as we speak, since rumors are circulating that Sterling, who is connected to Juventus, won’t be included in Chelsea’s matchday roster for their Europa Conference League play-off match against Servette, who will visit Stamford Bridge on Thursday.
Sterling is not the only one who feels excluded. Obviously not, considering Chelsea field 40 players in their first squad.
Tosin Adarabioyo, a summer acquisition, Ben Chilwell, a left back, and Wesley Fofana, a center back, are reportedly not on Maresca’s “A-list submitted to UEFA,” according to the BBC.
Chelsea will be able to register Sterling if they advance to the Conference League’s league stage, though it’s likely that he will have left by then.
Armando Broja, a Chelsea outcast, will sign a loan with Ipswich
Young striker Armando Broja, who is nearing a loan move to Ipswich Town, is one player Chelsea is about to let go.
As Chelsea works on his exit, Broja has been obliged to practice with the Under-21 team, and there is now supposedly an understanding with Kieran McKenna’s side.
The Albanian international will join Ipswich on loan with a buy clause, which will become obligatory if they avoid Premier League relegation, according to Fabrizio Romano.
