Raheem Sterling has been stripped of his number at Chelsea - Ornstein | Premier League | NBC Sports

WE WRAP UP THE ENTIRE MATCH WEEK NUMBER TWO. I'VE GOT GOOD NEWS. WE HAVE BOOTED EVERYTHING BACK UP. WE COULD NOT AND THE DAY WITHOUT TALKING TO DAVID ORENSTEIN ONE MORE TIME. WE HAVE THE TRANSFER WINDOW CLOSING FRIDAY AT 6:00 P.M. ASK FOR YOUR PATIENCE. YOU ARE AS PLUGGED IN AS ANYONE ON THE NEWS AND RUMORS THAT ARE OUT THERE. WHAT IS THE BIGGEST NEWS THAT IS ON YOUR RADAR RIGHT NOW? >> I WANT TO RUN YOU THROUGH A NUMBER OF THINGS WE HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR AS THAT DEADLINE LOOMS TO SITE. LET'S START WITH RAHEEM STERLING, FORMERLY OF THIS PARISH. LIVERPOOL FC ON TO MANCHESTER CITY AND NOW CHELSEA. BUT IT SEEMS WILL BE A SHORT- LIVED STAY THERE, BECAUSE HE HAS DEEMED SURPLUS TWO REQUIREMENTS. HE IS NOT PART OF THEIR PLANS. HE HAS BEEN TRAINING AWAY FROM THE CLUB. HE HAS BEEN STRIPPED OF HIS SHIRT NUMBER, SO THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS SITUATION. THERE ARE TALKS BETWEEN HIMSELF AND THE CLUB HIERARCHY OVER WHAT TO DO. THERE ARE THREE YEARS LEFT ON A CONTRACT THAT IS IN EXCESS OF 325,000 POUNDS A WEEK. SO WHAT CHELSEA OWE HIM RUNS INTO THE TENS OF MILLIONS OF POUNDS. AND I THINK STERLING'S PRIORITY IS TO SETTLE THAT BEFORE DECIDING WHERE HE MIGHT LIKE TO GO. A NUMBER OF MANAGERS, THE LIKES OF ARSENAL AND MANCHESTER CITY, HAVE BEEN ASKED ABOUT HIM. THEY HAVEN'T REALLY COMMENTED. I'M SURE ASTON VILLA, CRYSTAL PALACE HOLD VARYING DEGREES OF APPEAL TO STERLING, BUT THAT SITUATION WITH CHELSEA NEEDS TO BE SORTED OUT. THEN WE ARE GOING TO LOOK AT JADEN SANCHO, ANOTHER PLAYER THAT IS NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN THE OPENING TWO GAMES OF THE SEASON. IT SEEMS THAT MANCHESTER UNITED WOULD PREFER A SALE, BUT DID HAVE TIME? IS IT MORE LIKELY TO BE ALONE? I THINK POSSIBLY, HE WILL DEPART. OTHERWISE, HE IS GOING HAVE TO STAY THERE AND TRY TO REINTEGRATE WITH THEM. THERE WOULD BE LOTS OF CLUBS INTERESTED I'M SURE IF THEY CAN MAKE THE MONEY WORK AS WELL. WHICH I SHOULD TELL STERLING, THERE'S NO GUARANTEE HE WOULD DEMAND THE SALARY HE'S ON NOW IF YOU WERE TO MOVE ELSEWHERE. THIS IS A PLAYER WHO MIGHT ACCEPT SOMETHING REDUCED IF A DEAL CAN BE STRUCK. SCOTT STICKING WITH MANCHESTER UNITED. A NUMBER OF CLUBS HAVE BEEN AFTER HIM, BUT IT SEEMS NAPOLI ARE PUSHING THE HARDEST. THINK A CLUB TO CLUB DEAL CAN BE STRUCK, BUT THE PLAYER AGREEMENT NEEDS TO BE PUT IN PLACE AS WELL, AND THAT'S THE HARDEST PART. LET'S WATCH THAT ONE IN THE COMING HOURS AND DAYS. A PLAYER THAT MANCHESTER UNITED FANS WANT THEIR CLUB TO SIGN FOR PSG AND A DEAL IS PRETTY MUCH LINED UP, UNITED HAVEN'T PULLED THE TRIGGER YET. LET'S SEE, THAT COULD GO DOWN TO THE WIRE. HE'S A PLAYER WHO NOTTINGHAM FOREST ARE TRYING TO SIGN. IT'S CLOSE, BUT IT'S NOT DONE YET. I DON'T THINK IT HAS ANY RELATION TO THE INJURY SITUATION. THEY WANT BACKUP AND THE WIDE POSITIONS. ALL THE FANS ARE ASKING FOR NICO WILLIAMS. I THINK THAT'S GOING TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO DO. A NUMBER 9 FOR CHELSEA, AND INTEREST IN THE LIKES OF OSTERMAN CONTINUES. LIVERPOOL, WILL THEY DO ANYTHING? THEY HAVE NOT SIGNED ANYBODY SO FAR. ABA GOALKEEPER, BUT THAT WOULD BE FOR NEXT SEASON. MANCHESTER CITY, MAYBE ONE MORE. IVAN TONY, NO MOVED TO SAUDI ARABIA AS THINGS STAND. THEY FINALLY MAKE THAT MOVE FROM CRYSTAL PALACE TO MANCHESTER UNITED? NEWCASTLE LOOKING AT OTHER OPTIONS. THERE IS TONS THAT COULD HAPPEN BEFORE THAT DEADLINE. >> DAVID, WE
