'Upgraded'- Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling verdicts given after Arsenal and Chelsea transfers

Ian Wright and Roy Keane have both praised Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus and Chelsea's Raheem Sterling but believe that Man City have 'upgraded' after selling the duo this summer.

City generated nearly £100million from the sales of both their attackers who have started their London life well. Jesus has been on fire since his £45million move was confirmed. He has already scored seven goals in pre-season including his hat-trick in the Emirates Cup win against Sevilla on Saturday. Sterling has already shown the quality upgrade he has brought to the Chelsea squad, looking the most lively in the attack over his short time at the club.

Despite the Blues' problems still being evident for all to see up top, the 27-year-old has looked the brightest spark and has capped off his impressive Chelsea start with a much-deserved goal in the most recent pre-season victory over Udinese on Friday night. City have spent the £100million generated from the pair on Erling Haaland and Kelvin Phillips so far. They could even be about to sign Brighton's Marc Cucurella after the Spaniard handed in a transfer request in a bid to force through a move.
