Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is prioritising a deal for Manchester City attacker Raheem Sterling.
Sky Sports says Chelsea are set to miss out on Gabriel Jesus, but City teammate Sterling is the player truly in Tuchel's sights.
The Blues dipped their toe into negotiations when it became apparent that Arsenal were in advanced talks over the signing of Gabriel.
However, the City player Tuchel is keener on is Sterling.
The 27-year-old England international has a year remaining on his current deal at the Eithad Stadium, and has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge.
