Chelsea are reportedly very much in the mix for the potential transfer of Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling this summer.
The Blues could do with making changes up front after a disappointing season in which they lost both domestic cup finals and failed to sustain a serious title challenge.
Much of that was down to a lack of goals in their side, with last summer’s big signing Romelu Lukaku proving something of a flop, while the likes of Timo Werner, Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech didn’t have much of an impact either.
If Sterling is available, he could surely be a worthwhile addition to Thomas Tuchel’s side, and here’s the latest on the England international’s future, as per reporter Graeme Bailey on a podcast with Simon Phillips…
This looks like encouraging news from a Chelsea point of view, and Sterling could also surely be tempted by the prospect of a move to Stamford Bridge.
The former Liverpool man grew up in London, and he’s also been less assured of a starting spot in Pep Guardiola’s side in recent times.
