Newcastle to swoop for Sturridge

Newcastle United are set to make a move for Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge, according to the Daily Star.

The injury-plagued 26-year-old has only featured six times for the Reds this season, scoring four goals, and the Daily Star are reporting that Jurgen Klopp is willing to listen to offers of around £30m for the England ace.

As per the report, Arsenal are also keen on Sturridge, who is unsettled at Liverpool as his pain threshold and fitness are continuously questioned.

The former Chelsea forward moved to Anfield in 2013 for £12m and has netted 44 times in 71 outings for the Merseyside outfit.

But he has missed more games through injury than he has played in for Liverpool – something that has frustrated Kopites, particularly with the Reds’ lack of firepower up front without him.

John Cross of the Mirror claimed on Friday that Sturridge was ready to quit Anfield and seek a new start elsewhere.
