LONDON, July 10 — Chelsea have reached a deal with Premier League champions Manchester City to sign England forward Raheem Sterling for up to £50 million (RM266 million, British media reported on Saturday.
He will become Chelsea’s first major signing under the new ownership led by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital. After starting his senior career with Liverpool, Sterling moved to City in July 2015 and established himself as a regular in their frontline, netting 131 times in 337 games for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Sterling, however, fell down the pecking order last season, playing only a limited role in City’s run to the league title and the Champions League semi-final, with Guardiola often preferring Phil Foden or Jack Grealish on the left.
