Sterling tipped to sign for PSG amid embarrassing Man City reveal – Mills
Danny Mills has tipped Man City to sell Raheem Sterling to a European giant.
Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the ex-City and England defender suggested Paris Saint-Germain as a potential destination for Sterling.
The winger has struggled for game time at City this season and failed to impress in a rare start against Burnley this weekend.
His search for a first Premier League goal of the season continued and he only touched the ball 40 times while goalkeeper Zach Steffen managed 43, according to sofascore.
Sterling told the Financial Times just two days before the game he was open to leaving the Premier League champions and revealed he would prefer a move to France or Spain.
“He clearly wants to play,” Mills told Football Insider correspondent Connor Whitley.
“I would suggest that he’s still going to play 30-odd games this season for Man City because he’s still a quality player.
“But if he’s marginalised by Pep because of Grealish, Foden and Mahrez in those wide areas then of course he’s going to think ‘Do I want to sit on the sidelines or do I not?’
“He’s won pretty much all there is to win apart from the Champions League.
“He’s 26, he might get to that point and think ‘Do I want to sit on the bench for three seasons or do I want to go and challenge myself?’.
“It’s now about who can afford him. If Kylian Mbappe leaves, it could be PSG. If Mbappe doesn’t go to Real Madrid, it could be Real Madrid.
“He’s a Man City player who has done a fantastic job. Ok, he’s had a dip in form but there’s no reason why he can’t get back in the team.”
