Fabrizio Romano has dropped an emphatic update on whether Raheem Sterling will see his loan spell at Arsenal cut short

Raheem Sterling’s season is going from bad to worse, with the news out of Arsenal today that he’s been ruled out for a while after picking up a knee injury in training last week. The extent of the injury is not yet fully know, nor is the exact expected timeline for recovery, but those sorts of unknowns rarely reveal good news.

Raheem Sterling is not in the Arsenal squad for Saturday’s Premier League clash against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. The England international joined the Gunners on loan from Chelsea on transfer deadline day but he has struggled to make an impression under Mikel Arteta.

The former Liverpool and Manchester City forward was frozen out at Stamford Bridge by Enzo Maresca at the start of the season. Surprisingly left out of Chelsea's squad for the first Premier League fixture of the campaign, Sterling sealed a west London exit on deadline day.

Fabrizio Romano has delivered a decisive update on Raheem Sterling's Arsenal loan, confirming it won't be cut short despite his struggles this season.

Raheem Sterling has reportedly made a decision over his future ahead of the January transfer window amid his dismal spell on loan at Arsenal. Sterling has failed to make much of an impact on the pitch since joining the Gunners in a temporary switch from Chelsea in August.
