Sterling & Man City fail to agree deal


Manchester City and Raheem Sterling are ‘poles apart’ on agreeing a new contract, according to  Sky Sports .

The Premier League champions have agreed long-term contracts with several of their key players in recent months and are keen to secure Sterling on a fresh deal.

However, Sterling’s representatives have been unable to agree a deal regarding the England international’s wages and no further talks are currently planned regarding the forward’s future.


Liverpool unlikely to meet Alisson price


Liverpool are unlikely to meet Roma’s £80 million ($107m) asking price for goalkeeper Alisson, reports  Sky Sports .

Instead, the Brazil international is much more likely to land at Real Madrid, though the Champions League winners are also interested in Thibaut Courtois.

If Courtois does make the move to the Spanish capital, then Chelsea would go in for Alisson.
