Chelsea are "working closely with the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA)," sources have told ESPN, over the club's treatment of Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi.
Both players are training away from the first-team after being told they have no future at Stamford Bridge.
Sterling, 30, has two years remaining on the five-year contract he signed when he joined Chelsea from Manchester City in a £47.5 million ($64.85m) transfer in July 2022, becoming the first signing under the club's new owners, Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital.
Disasi, 27, was a £38.5m signing from Monaco in August 2023 is under contract at Chelsea until June 2029.
Both players spent last season on loan away from Stamford Bridge with former England winger Sterling making 28 appearances in all competitions for Arsenal and Disasi playing 10 times for Aston Villa.
Despite both Sterling and Disasi being available for transfer this summer, neither was able to secure a move.
Sources have told ESPN that Napoli and Bayern Munich both made attempts to sign Sterling, but with the London-born player wanting to remain in the capital to be with his young family, the proposals on offer from the two clubs were not suitable at the time.
But with Sterling and Disasi still at Stamford Bridge following the closure of the transfer window on Sept. 1, hopes of a return to Enzo Maresca's squad have not come to fruition and the two players have been left to train away from the senior squad.
Sources have said that Chelsea and the PFA are now working together to ensure that the two players are able to train properly and also given game time at the club's Cobham training ground.
Sterling and Disasi have also been given designated coaches to ensure that they will be able to secure a move away from Chelsea when the transfer window reopens in January.
Chelsea and the PFA declined to comment when contacted by ESPN.

I don’t understand why this issues always affects the team and favor players,look at when isak wanted to leave Newcastle,he refuse to play or train and he eventually got his wishes fulfilled but when a team tell a player that he’s no longer needed then the team betrayed them

Whatever Chelsea does, I don't see any problem to the players but poor management which is weakening the team day to day. Maresca's thing will never take us where we want to reach. We need Jose Mourinho

ĺThis clubs approach treatment of players under contract making them train alone not for disciplinary reason but just because they are made surplus to requirement is criminal. And these player need to their Legal teams Involved. They ((players ) should be paid to leave or simply sold. To not allowed them to train with their teammate is criminal
Its very fair treatment

I think FIFA should start punishing clubs treating players under contracts now because this is not good for players at all and its career destroying.
If player is trouble maker must be remove

There must be a rule where a player can be sack with 2 weeks notice. If they so high salary and cannot perform club must sack them

The federation should put something in place so coaches don't treat discipline players like that

You cannot force a team to play a player that is not performing. That is why a player has the right to leave if he's not treated properly.

Sterling is much happier to train alone and collect his high £350,000 per week wages than to go for transfer. Knowing fully well that he was not in Moresca's plan, he had many offers but he prefers to remain in London to stay with his family thereby giving the club condition on where to go. This was why he went to Arsenal and failed to perform. If he is earning below £100,000 a week I believe he would have left. Chilwell was in the same situation but he left to Strasbourg just to play football. Many players are going to Spain,Italy, France, Germany and even Saudi just to play football but he wants to remain in London as Landlord.

And later you will say u know football 🙄. Sterling didn’t join Chelsea becoz of salary . City want him out and he chose the better club among all clubs that came for him. Do you know how much he was earning before he joined Chelsea ? Sterling was earning 300k before he joined Chelsea and Chelsea gave him 325k so how is that joining for money ? 😏
But 325k is more than 300k..🤔

They never new the consequence of signing players for 6 or 8yrs, guess they are now ripping what they sow. Sterling will wait until contracts expire
Is this about the wages ? Didn’t they have offers they both turned them down because Sterling don’t wanna leave London and Disasi said he wanted Monaco . How is that length of contract ? 🙄

The Enjoyment you received From Liverpool and Manchester City that is the punishment you're receiving in Chelsea now. You went and Joined Chelsea because of big Weekly wages like the way Young boys use to enter Yahoo Yahoo without knowing that both of them are Devils money. They give you with right hand and collect it with right hand.

Ridiculous deals… how can you give someone a deal until 2029 without placing a value on them? BAD business, they are just signing amateur players and giving them 10-15 years deal 🤣🤣🤣

If I was sterling, I would just be enjoying free money at 30yrs in peace
Exactly. making 325,000/week just to work out and still be with his family. If your team wants to try and stick it to you then do it back

I feel pity for players who are told they have no future at the club,this treatment must come to an end as long as you are contracted to that team you should be treated equally with other employees,the coach can be fired any time and new coach will bring in you and you might win 4 trophies for the team that threw you out on the street by scoring all the goals for them this is poor treatment we can co exist much better
