Feyenoord Rejects New Deal for Raheem Sterling After 349 Goalless Minutes

Feyenoord have decided against extending Raheem Sterling’s contract after his February move yielded 349 minutes, no goals and one assist across all appearances.
The 31-year-old arrived short of match fitness, lost four days to work-permit delays in Belgium and never turned early buzz in Rotterdam into on-pitch impact.
Signs of the split had already emerged: Dutch media reported two weeks ago that extension talks were off, and Sterling showed frustration after being substituted in a 0-0 draw with Volendam.
Sterling will become a free agent again this summer, with Serie A clubs expected to show interest, while Feyenoord stay focused on protecting second place and direct Champions League qualification.
