The former Manchester City and Chelsea winger concluded his season with Dutch club Feyenoord Rotterdam. However, he had endured a challenging period prior to this, training alone and outside the first-team squad at Chelsea after returning from a loan spell at Arsenal. The club even denied him access to the main areas of the training center. Sterling's representatives confirmed his arrest to the DPA agency, also providing insights into his mental state.

"He felt worthless and forgotten. His mental health suffered. He moved to the Netherlands to escape and rediscover his love for football. However, the negative atmosphere pursued him, and it has been an incredibly difficult two years. This incident encapsulates that." The source also added that Sterling was arrested on suspicion, and there is currently no evidence of drugs in his system.
