Chelsea boss Tuchel approves move for Man City attacker Sterling | OneFootball

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has approved a move for Manchester City attacker Raheem Sterling.

Football.London says Chelsea have targeted Sterling ahead of the summer transfer window and it is a deal 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.

Arsenal have also been linked with a move for Sterling, with former City coach Mikel Arteta looking to tempt a number of Pep Guardiola's quad to north London. But Chelsea have the advantage of Champions League football to their name when it comes to negotiations.

Incoming owner Todd Boehly is expected to hand Tuchel £200 million worth of transfer funds for the summer as they look to close the gap on Liverpool and City at the top of the league.

Tuchel wants the board to go out and sign this summer as he looks to add more potency to his front line.
