Former England Star Raheem Sterling Arrested After Lamborghini Crash
Raheem Sterling has been arrested on suspicion of drug-driving after crashing his Lamborghini on the M3. Get the latest on the former England winger's legal battle and career struggles.
Former England star Raheem Sterling has been arrested on suspicion of drug-driving following a high-speed crash on the M3 motorway. The 31-year-old winger reportedly lost control of his Lamborghini and collided with barriers near the Minley Interchange on Thursday morning.
Police arrived at the scene just before 9 am after receiving reports of the single-vehicle collision. While no other cars were involved and no injuries were reported, Sterling was taken into custody. He faces allegations of driving while unfit through drugs, dangerous driving, possession of a Class C drug, and failing to provide a specimen. He has since been released on bail while further enquiries are carried out by authorities.
While the legal allegations are serious, sources close to the player have pushed back, suggesting there is no proof of drugs in his system at the time of the incident. These sources highlighted that Sterling has faced an extremely difficult couple of years, mentioning that the player has often felt worthless and forgotten by the football community during his recent career moves.
Sterling’s career has seen a significant downturn recently. After leaving Chelsea by mutual consent following a settlement package, he moved to Feyenoord in the Netherlands on a short-term deal. However, he struggled to find his form, making only eight appearances before his contract ended. This is a sharp contrast to his peak years at Manchester City, where he secured four Premier League titles and became a staple of the England national team with 82 caps.
