New Man City deal for Sterling?

According to a recent report from Daily Mirror, Manchester City are eager to tie Raheem Sterling down to a new contract.

The belief is that this is now the club’s main aim after they were able to lock Pep Guardiola down to a new contract earlier this week, with Sterling – alongside Kevin de Bruyne – being set to see his wages increase to £350,000 per week.

The same is said to be the case for a few of City’s other top stars, and that seems to be the direction that City need to go in as they attempt to rebuild and grow.

Pep himself will be well aware of the troubles that currently face City, especially in the wake of their loss to Tottenham Hotspur last night. They need to bleed out their weaker names and keep hold of the big ones, and from there, they also have to bring in some new stars – especially defensively.
