In the latest transfer news, Chelsea are ramping up their interest in Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus, according to reports. The England international has only one-year remaining on his contract at the Etihad, leaving uncertainty surrounding his future.

The interest from the Blues comes ahead of a huge summer for Thomas Tuchel and his squad. The German coach is set to receive £200million from new owner Todd Boehly which would allow him to perform a full overhaul heading into next season.

Discussing the challenges ahead of him, Tuchel said: "We are rebuilding, not improving the squad. We are rebuilding. This is always challenging but we are up for the challenge."

Part of that rebuild is likely to come in the defence, with Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen leaving as free agents. However, there are other problems throughout the squad, including depth in the midfield and the struggles to create chances and score in the final third.

The latter is a particular worry, especially given the £100million that was spent bringing Romelu Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge. The Belgian, along with Christian Pulisic, Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner, are reportedly able to leave the club this summer in a complete overhaul of the forward line.
