Liverpool ace Sturridge available for England's Germany meeting

Daniel Sturridge has declared himself fit for England's friendly with Germany on Tuesday.

The Liverpool striker missed Friday's 2-0 loss to Chile because of a foot problem but is now ready to meet Die Mannschaft at Wembley after receiving plenty of work on the affected area.

"I've had a lot of treatment over the last few days and been working very hard to make sure I'm OK. I'm going to train today and I'm ready to go for the game," he told reporters.

"It is not a serious injury so I hope it doesn't linger on. I've been playing with it for the last couple of games and it has been hindering my performance. But it is not a problem for me, I'm delighted that the pain is not as bad and I'm looking forward to the game."
