Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has already identified two players who could replace Raheem Sterling should he decide to leave this summer.
Guardiola is expecting to discover where Sterling's future lies before the Blues' pre-season tour gets underway next month. Thomas Tuchel is thought to be a big admirer of the Englishman and he is looking to fill the gap left by Romelu Lukaku after the Belgian was allowed to leave Stamford Bridge on loan this summer.
The 27-year-old has played a big role in City's success since joining from Liverpool and has won four Premier League titles, five League Cups and an FA Cup during his time in Manchester. However, should he choose to leave the Etihad, Guardiola has already named two players who could fill the gap he will leave.
