Arsenal is shocked by the deal they made with Chelsea to get Raheem Sterling.
.
Alan Shearer was thrilled when Sterling moved to Arsenal because he thought it was a great fit for the winger.
From what Standard Sport has learned, however, Arsenal may be the most excited about the loan deal.
.
Arsenal is said to be “delighted” with the deal they made to sign Sterling without having to pay a transfer fee.
The club also reached a good agreement with Chelsea about Sterling’s £300,000 salary, so they won’t have to pay the rest of it.
Sterling is seen as a good addition to Arsenal’s young team who can help them win this season.
Sterling can even play as a false nine if needed, and most importantly, Arsenal can finally give Bukayo Saka a break now that Sterling is there.
