According to the same report, Manchester City are open to including Raheem Sterling in a swap deal with the Bianconeri, but Juventus want Gabriel Jesus instead.

The Brazilian striker is Juventus’ priority target to replace Ronaldo, but according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Old Lady’s shortlist includes the likes of Mauro Icardi. Luka Jovic and Moise Kean.

The agent of the latter, Mino Raiola, is currently in Turin to meet the Bianconeri.

The future of Sterling remains a matter of concern for Manchester City, given that the Premier League champions must sell him if they are to welcome Ronaldo.

A previous report from La Gazzetta dello Sport had claimed Barcelona is an option for the England winger.
