Raheem Sterling Arrested on Suspicion of Drug-Driving After Lamborghini Crash

Police say the 31-year-old former England winger was arrested after his Lamborghini hit motorway barriers, and no injuries were reported.

  • On Thursday, Hampshire Police arrested former England winger Raheem Sterling on suspicion of drug-driving, dangerous driving, possession of a Class C drug, and failing to provide a specimen after his Lamborghini collided with barriers on the M3 southbound near Minley Interchange.
  • Sterling's career has declined since leaving Manchester City nearly four years ago, marked by a contract termination at Chelsea in January and a subsequent move to Dutch club Feyenoord in February, where he made eight appearances.
  • A source told the Daily Mail Sterling has been in an "extremely difficult place" for two years, citing "immeasurable" psychological strain and noting his move to the Netherlands failed to escape persistent negativity surrounding his career.
  • Sterling was released on bail pending further enquiries, with police investigations continuing into the circumstances of Thursday's collision on the motorway.
  • This incident highlights professional struggles Sterling faced recently, including a failed loan stint at Arsenal where he managed just five Premier League starts under manager Enzo Maresca at Chelsea.
