Chelsea have reportedly targeted Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling ahead of the summer transfer window and it is a deal Thomas Tuchel wants to see happen.
The German is set for the busiest transfer window since his move to west London with a number of new recruits needed. Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen, Marcos Alonso and Cesar Azpilicueta could all be on their way out in defence while the futures of Jorginho, N'Golo Kante, Timo Werner, Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech are also up in the air.
Todd Boehly's consortium are expected to be officially announced as the new owners of the club in the coming days and they will no doubt be eager to make a positive first impression on supporters. Backing Tuchel would be a surefire way to do that and a marquee signing such as Sterling would certainly do no harm at all.
