Sterling will re-join the England team for the World Cup

Date:

Raheem Sterling, a winger for England, will return to Qatar prior to Saturday’s World Cup quarterfinal matchup against France.

The Chelsea player, 28, took a flight back to England on Sunday after his Surrey family home was broken into.

The spokesperson for Sterling claimed that the reason the player left the England camp was to “prioritize the wellbeing” of his three young children.

He was not present for England’s 3-0 victory over Senegal in the round of 16, but he is anticipated to re-join the group on December 9 in Al Wakrah.

Sterling’s family was at home on Saturday, according to his representative, when there were “armed intruders.” The former Manchester City and Liverpool forward was reportedly “shaken” and worried about the welfare of his kids.

In a statement Surrey police said they were investigating a report of a burglary after the occupants of the house returned to find jewellery and watches had been taken, but that no threats of violence were involved.

On Wednesday, the police said they are not linking the case to another attempted burglary in the same village.

No arrests have been made yet in relation to the break-in at Sterling’s home.

The Football Association is yet to reveal exactly what it was told about the incident before Sterling’s departure.
