Chelsea has reportedly been linked with a 48 million pound move for Liverpool's star winger Raheem Sterling.
Speculations have become rife in recent weeks about Sterling's future at Anfield with Real Madrid said to be circling to land the winger, Metro.co.uk reported.
And while Sterling's contract situation with Liverpool remains up in the air, rival parties are keeping close tabs on the situation, with reports claiming that Chelsea are the latest to show an interest.
