The player’s future has been uncertain
Daniel Sturridge joined Liverpool from Chelsea for an undisclosed fee thought to be in the region of £12 million, signing a long term contract in 2013. Since then he has scored 63 goals in 133 appearances for the club.
The 28 year old was pivotal for the Reds during his first season and formed an impressive partnership with Luis Suarez. He helped the team to finish 2nd in the league and was the runner-up for the Premier League golden boot.
He also helped his team to reach the Finals of the Europa league in 2016 but lost against Sevilla. He ended the season as the club’s top scorer with 13 goals.
But for the past 2 season, the England International has struggled a lot with injuries and has just scored 10 goals in 41 appearances. He began the 2016/2017 season as an understudy to Roberto Firmino and mostly used as a substitute.
The Striker managed to score only 2 goals last season before moving to West Bromich Albion on a loan deal in the January transfer window for the rest of the season. He failed to score any goals for the Baggies and his loan spell ended in relegation from the Premier League.
He is well down the pecking order right now, with Danny Ings ahead of him in the queue for first-team opportunities. His future has been unsure but he has a shortage of options for his next move and his wages top £120,000-a-week which could be an obstacle to securing a move.
Sturridge reportedly wants to fight for his place at Liverpool reports The Sun. He is preparing himself to be at Anfield when the Champions League finalists return to prepare to tour America where Klopp’s men face Manchester United, Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund.
