Liverpool’s Daniel Sturridge alerts West Ham with London exit eyed amid Newcastle link

DANIEL STURRIDGE is keen on a return to London to escape his tag of crocked striker at Liverpool.

 

Daniel Sturridge has made just five Premier League appearances for Liverpool this season

 

According to the Sunday People, the former Chelsea forward is ready to exit Anfield in a bid to rediscover his top form with a Capital-based club.

Injuries have plagued the 26-year-old during his time at Liverpool, and his relationship with the fans has become strained as a result, although manager Jurgen Klopp insists there's is still normal.

The England international is reportedly eyeing a fresh start in London, where he spent three-and-a-half years at Stamford Bridge prior to joining Liverpool in January 2012.

 

Despite the intention of forcing through a deal with a top London club, Sturridge has earned attention from the other end of the country.

According to the Daily Star, Newcastle are lining up a summer swoop for the striker in an attempt to re-establish themselves as one of the bigger forces in England’s top flight.

However, it is reported that Liverpool will only consider selling for a fee in the region of £30million.

Sturridge’s options are limited as the required cost for his services would be a big gamble for any club to take considering his injury issues.

 

While Arsenal are in the market for a new striker this summer, according to the Daily Mail, whether Sturridge will attract their interest remains to be seen. 

West Ham’s move to the Olympic Stadium at the end of the season is set to be marked by the arrival of a prolific goalscorer to take them to the next level.

They have history of taking Liverpool strikers notorious for injury issues with Andy Carroll, the east Londoners record signing at £15m. 

If Sturridge can prove his fitness for the second half of the season though, his reputation could be restored to see teams make a move ahead of the 2016/17 campaign.
