Chelsea have reportedly made an opening bid of £21.4m plus add-ons for Manchester City star Raheem Sterling.
The England international has been a mainstay for the Cityzens, but his playing time has reduced over the past couple of seasons.
With his contract expiring next summer, he is prepared to move on, and Fabrizio Romano has now confirmed a formal offer from Chelsea.
The Blues have surprisingly made an opening offer of just £21.4m plus add-ons for the 27-year-old that was immediately rejected by the Cityzens.
The west London giants are set to make a renewed attempt for the former Liverpool man, but they may need to significant raise their offer.
The reigning English champions value the winger highly, and want at least £50 million to sanction his sale during the ongoing transfer window.
Arsenal have also been linked with him in the past, but they are currently prioritising a move for his Manchester City teammates Gabriel Jesus.
