Bayern Munich are joining the power battle for Liverpool midfielder Raheem Sterling. The Daily Express says Sterling, who is set to inform Liverpool he wants to leave the club, is being targeted by Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City.

And according to reports in Germany, Pep Guardiola is keen to bring in cover for veteran Franck Ribery and has identified Sterling as his man.

Ribery, who has made just 22 appearances this term, has struggled with an ankle injury and Guardiola is keen to bring in a high-profile replacement for his crocked veteran.
