Wrexham are drawing up more ambitious plans following their promotion into the Championship, with Jamie Vardy one England international that has seen a move to SToK Racecourse mooted. Could the Red Dragons finance a deal for Sterling?
WHAT EMMANUEL PETIT SAID
Ex-Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Petit has told : “Chelsea would be happy to let Raheem Sterling go with only a year left on his contract, the issue for Wrexham would be how much the wages are.
“He is probably on over £300,000 a week and Wrexham would have to offer him a great package to convince him to sign. It would be interesting to see, but Ryan Reynolds would have to get the chequebook out.
“When it comes to Sterling in the Premier League, we all know he isn’t the same player he once was.”
