Raheem Sterling is reportedly seeking assurances over his playing time if he is to make a sensational move from Manchester City to Chelsea this summer.
The 74-cap England forward won another Premier League title with City last season and played 47 times in all competitions, scoring 17 goals - but has not always been first-choice at the Etihad.
Sterling has been linked with a switch from City, with Chelsea among those interested in landing his signature.
Reports suggest several European heavyweights increasingly feel Sterling is open to leaving the club - despite not yet revealing his intentions about his future.
