🎯 Chelsea target Presnel Kimpembe had the best pass success rate in Europe's top 5 leagues last season (95.5%)

On his last Premier League appearance, Raheem Sterling was aged 27 years, 165 days old.

Only four players have had more PL goal involvements than Sterling by that age:

Wayne Rooney: 230 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
Thierry Henry: 186 🇫🇷
Harry Kane: 184 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
Alan Shearer: 172 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
Raheem Sterling: 165 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Rob Segal (super agent): "Don’t think for one second that Real Madrid aren’t watching Thomas Tuchel. That is why Chelsea are so willing to back him. They know they need to keep hold of him for as long as they can.”
