Raheem Sterling told he’ll NEVER return to Chelsea first team as brutal Maresca issues last rights to £97m ‘bomb squad’

RAHEEM STERLING and his “bomb-squad” pals have been told there is no way back at Chelsea.

Sterling, Axel Disasi and David Datro Fofana — who cost a combined ­£97million — are training away from the first-team squad, eating on their own and even using a separate toilet.

Blues boss Enzo Maresca said: “They are Chelsea players but are still ­training apart.

“But I haven’t seen them since the start of the season.

“They train on a ­different pitch at a different time.”

When asked whether the trio had any chance of a route back into the  first team, Maresca ­brutally replied: “No.”

Cole Palmer returned to training on Thursday but is still a doubt to face Brentford tonight.

Maresca added: “Cole took part in the session for the first time but not the entire session.

“He is recovering from an injury, it’s not about managing him. When he is available, then we need to manage him.”

The Blues have a pre-agreement in place to sign Dutch forward Emanuel ­Emegha, 22, next year on a seven-year deal from sister club Strasbourg.
