London, July 10 (SocialNews.XYZ) Chelsea have agreed a deal with Premier League champions Manchester City to sign England forward Raheem Sterling.

According to reports in British media the 27-year-old is expected to undergo a medical in the next few days, with Chelsea hopeful a deal will be completed in time to allow the England forward to join the club's pre-season tour in the United States.

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.
