Raheem Sterling is ready to leave Manchester City this summer, with Chelsea among the clubs battling for his signature. That is according to the Telegraph, who report a number of top European sides are also keeping tabs on the former Liverpool star's situation.
The report adds that an exit from the Etihad Stadium is increasingly likely, with the England international having one-year remaining on his contract. However, Chelsea are not the only side interested, as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich are also said to be monitoring the situation closely.
The interest from the Blues comes ahead of a huge summer for Thomas Tuchel and his squad, with the futures of Romelu Lukaku, Christian Pulisic, Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner all in doubt as new owner Todd Boehly plans a major rebuild at Stamford Bridge. Gabriel Jesus is just one of the players linked with a move to the Blues, although the Brazilian is also high up on the list of Arsenal's transfer priorities this summer.
