Alan Shearer has praised reported Arsenal target and Manchester City star Raheem Sterling on Premier League’s official website.

The Newcastle United legend was impressed by Sterling, linked with a move to Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal in the summer transfer window, scoring a hat-trick for Manchester City against Norwich at Carrow Road in the Premier League at the weekend.

Sterling, who can play as an attacking midfielder or as a winger, scored three goals in City’s 4-0 win against Norwich in the Premier League on Saturday.

The Daily Star reported in January 2022 that Arsenal are interested in signing the England international in the summer of 2022.

City could reportedly sell the 27-year-old former Liverpool player for £50 million.

Shearer wrote about Sterling on Premier League’s official website: “He is back in form, as his perfect hat-trick showed. It doesn’t get much better than that!”

Raheem Sterling would be great for Arsenal

In our opinion, Sterling would be a brilliant signing for Arsenal and would make the Gunners a more potent team.

Yes, the attacker has not been in great form this season, but we all know what he is capable of.

Sterling is 27 now, which means that he is in his prime, and his success in the Premier League with Liverpool and City means that he would be able to make an immediate impact at Arsenal.
