Arsenal star dealing with numerous ‘battles inside his mind’

One Arsenal star is said to be fighting with many battles inside his mind. These are killing his on field performances and causing a big issue for both the club and the player.

The star in question here is Raheem Sterling. Sterling joined Gunners on the deadline day in summer from Chelsea. It is a loan move with the Blues paying most of the player’s salary. Sterling is currently having hard time to reach his full potential at North London.

The 30 year old has played 13 games for Arsenal in all competitions. He has been able to score only once and assist only twice so far. In addition, he has also struggled to stay fit.

Sami Mokbel has reported that Sterling has been struggling with overthinking problem. In addition, the 30 year old is struggling with confidence issues and is fighting battles with criticism.

This is a worse condition for any player and it can be seen from the performances of Sterling. He is having a hard time and needs to get it all together very soon. He has a perfect chance to shine at North London right now.

Saka will miss for as much as 3 months whereas Jesus will be sidelined for long period of time. This will present Sterling with more regular chances than he was getting earlier.

Arsenal to part ways with Sterling at the end of the season?

As of now, Gunners are very unlikely to turn Sterling’s loan move into permanent. They are focused on signing a new and young winger and will prefer to open up space by letting out-of-favour stars leave. They are keen to sign Nico Williams who at the moment is direct upgrade on Sterling. Along with Sterling, his former Man City teammate Jesus is also likely to leave.
