However, Chelsea will need to reach an agreement with Manchester City over the transfer fee of the Englishman. The defending Premier League champions are open to selling Raheem Sterling but only at the correct price.
It is understood that new co-owner Ted Boehly has taken over the negotiations for the Raheem Sterling deal. Marina Granovskaia was in charge of the transfer but after leaving the club, the American is preparing a new and improved bid.
It is understood that Manchester City are willing to let the England international leave at a much lower price than their initial demands. The Mancunian outfit earlier wanted around £60m for the winger but are now open to accepting bids in the range of £45m.
Raheem Sterling has been an instrumental part under Pep Guardiola but his place has come under threat in recent seasons. The winger has been getting inconsistent minutes and with the arrival of Erling Haaland plus Jack Grealish and Phil Foden waiting in the wing, Manchester City are looking to cash in on him.
