hoping to get some vital game time under his belt before returning to play for a top side once again.<\/p>\n<p>The Englishman is still 31, so he has a fair few years left under him and if he can

was far from ideal and though it ended up with him being frozen out before ultimately being let go of by the Blues, his success with Manchester City, including winning the Premier League four times is a career highlight.<\/p>\n<p>He was one of the Premier League\u2019s best wingers during his time under Pep Guardiola and his experience with the Sky Blues will be vital in a Manchester United dressing room that has ambitious and high-quality players, but not many winning profiles.<\/p>\n<p>In order to possibly secure a switch to Old Trafford, however, Sterling will need to impress at Feyenoord and that is expected to be his priority for the remainder of the season, whereas some financial sacrifices also might have to be made by the 31-year-old.<\/p>\n<p>Given that two English clubs are already expected to keep their eyes on him, it will be interesting to see what next season holds for Sterling as he will surely be determined to put his turbulent spell at Chelsea behind him.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--mvp-post-tags--><br
