Raheem Sterling is back home in England after the left the England FIFA World Cup team. His family home was broken into the night before, and he immediately left camp.
The Chelsea forward has been living in London since he transferred to the Blues in the transfer window. His home has been broken into and items were stolen.
He lives with his partner and children at this home, making this a very personal matter to him. Sterling left camp before they played Senegal last night.
“I had a long time with him this morning just trying to work out how best for him to deal with everything,” England manager Gareth Southgate told talkSPORT after the match.
“He’s going to go home tonight. The priority at this time is his family and we’ve got to give him the space to sort everything out there and then we’ll see if he’s able to come back and when.
“That wouldn’t be a problem in terms of the bubble but obviously we’ve got to give him the space and time to work out exactly what’s going to go on.”
Sterling has played in the opening two matches for England in the tournament. The team will wait to see whether he will make it to play against France on Saturday.
