Chelsea have agreed a £47.5million fee with Manchester City to sign forward Raheem Sterling.
The 27-year-old is expected to undergo a medical in the next few days, with Chelsea hopeful Chelsea a deal will be completed in time to allow the England forward to join the club’s pre-season tour in the United States.

Sterling has agreed personal terms on a five-year contract with the option of a further 12 months and his medical will begin on Sunday afternoon.
Sterling joined City from Liverpool for an initial £49m in July 2015 and has played a key role in their success under Pep Guardiola.
He has won four Premier League titles, one FA Cup and three League Cups at the Etihad Stadium, and scored 131 goals in 339 appearances for the reigning Premier League champions.
