Chelsea have started this window slowly, that’s without question. But that just means there’s catching up to do, according to top transfer insider Fabrizio Romano.
On the Que Golazo podcast, here quoted by Chels HQ on Twitter, Romano said that the move that’s about to take place for Raheem Sterling is not a “normal signing.”
"Raheem Sterling is not a normal signing, it's a top signing. One of the best wingers in the game, it's a huge one. #Chelsea are on it, don't worry. They will do something, they are busy."

Presumably because of the price tag and the pedigree that Sterling brings to Chelsea, he calls it a “top signing”, and insists that the Man City man is one of the best wingers in football.
He goes further, adding that Chelsea are “on it” when it comes to following Sterling with more big signings.
That’s a promising sign given where we are as a club. After losing three first team players this summer we’re worse off than we were just a couple of months ago, and no matter how good Sterling is, he can’t play centre back.
