Raheem Sterling Left Out Of England Squad For The Fifth Time In A Row.

POSTED ON November 10, 2023 •   Football      BY Lawrence Omoge

Raheem Sterling has been left out of the England squad for the fifth time in a row, despite Chelsea's recent good form.

The 28-year-old forward has been in good form for his club, but he has been unable to break back into Gareth Southgate's squad.

After missing the previous two matches due to injury, Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has been recalled to the squad.

The winger for Arsenal has been red hot this year, contributing six goals and four assists across all competitions.

Eddie Nketiah is the only other change to the squad, with the Arsenal striker dropping out.

Nketiah has made two appearances for England, but he has yet to score a goal.

On the other hand, James Reece has refused to accept Southgate's call to the squad.

England are already assured of a place in the Euro 2024 finals, but Southgate will be looking to finish the qualifying campaign on a high.

The Three Lions face Malta at Wembley on November 17th, before traveling to North Macedonia three days later.

It is unclear why Sterling has been left out of the squad again, but it is clear that he is not in Southgate's plans at the moment.

Sterling is one of England's most experienced players, and he is still capable of performing at the highest level.

This latest rebuff, despite his excellent form for Chelsea, will raise doubts about the 28-year-old's international future, despite his 82 caps and 20 goals for England.

It is unclear whether he will be able to earn a spot on the team in time for next year's World Cup.
