You really think Southgate is gonna care? Sterling has been in abysmal form with City for pretty much the entire calendar year and isn't starting regularly for them, and he is still penciled in the start for England. The thing is whether it's January or July, the market for him is realistic still only one team. You're not selling him to Chelsea or Arsenal, Liverpool won't pay a nine figure fee, and United (and probably everyone else) will be after Haaland come summer.
His value is never coming back to whatever City offered this summer. There won't ever be a bidding war for him because there simply won't be enough interested parties at the price Spurs want. Get rid of his crap attitude and I bet that team plays better, because right now his disinterested performances (and the outside distractions that come with them) surely aren't playing well in the locker room.
