RAHEEM STERLING is heading for yet another pay rise.
And Gabriel Jesus is about to be offered a long-term deal.
That's the latest contract details to emerge from the Etihad as Manchester City look to nail down their brightest young stars.
reports that England man Sterling has two full seasons left on his current £180,000-a-week deal.
His new deal is likely to run to 2023 and be worth a basic salary of £220,000-a-week.
But bonuses and incentives will push that figure closer to £275,000.
Sterling's wages could rise from £220,000 to £275,000 a week
Such has been Sterling's improvement his season that the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are beginning to take notice.
So the runaway Premier League leaders and Carabao Cup finalists want to tie him down to a long-term deal.
