Chelsea ponder double raid on Man City for Sterling and Gabriel Jesus

Chelsea are lining up a double raid on Manchester City for attacking pair Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus.

The London Evening News says Chelsea are eyeing Sterling this summer and have also been offered the chance to sign Gabriel, with the Brazilian eager to leave City this summer.

Both attackers have a year left on their contracts, with Gabriel pushing to depart, while Sterling set to hold talks over his future after the last of England's Nations League games next week.

There is a growing feeling that Sterling could depart ahead of the new season, having become frustrated at no longer being first-choice under Pep Guardiola.

Chelsea are interested in bringing the winger back to west London, where he started his career in QPR's academy.

Gabriel is also under consideration with doubts over the futures of Chelsea pair Timo Werner and Romelu Lukaku.
