Man City ready Sterling bid

Manchester City will reportedly launch a summer bid for Liverpool winger Raheem Sterling.

The Reds youngster has been in fine form for the club this season, and his performances have attracted interest from the likes of Real Madrid in recent months.

Recent reports have revealed that the Merseysiders are ready to wait until the summer before negotiating a new contract with the Jamaican-born winger.

However, The Mirror claims that City boss Manuel Pellegrini is plotting the club's recovery in advance, and will make a move for the 20-year-old during the summer transfer window.
