Raheem Sterling is the latest Manchester City player to be linked with a transfer away from the Etihad this summer as reports on Sunday suggested Chelsea were confident of securing his signing.
Sky Italy reported that Sterling could join Chelsea for as little as £35m, but Sky Sports in the UK offered a prospective transfer fee of closer to the £60m region. In response, bookmakers cut the chances of Sterling moving to Stamford Bridge to odds-on, and Sterling's previous comments could support a desire for a transfer away.
However, Sterling has remained consistent in outlining what he wants moving forward whenever discussing his future, with his current City contract expiring in 2023. At the start of the 2021/22 season, Sterling found himself out of form and out of the City team, prompting talk of a potential move away as the England international remained clear that he wanted regular games.
