Former Manchester City star Micah Richards thinks the club should sign Daniel Sturridge.

The former City, Liverpool and Chelsea striker is a free agent after leaving Trabzonspor.

And with City losing Sergio Aguero for a month through injury, Richards thinks Pep Guardiola should look at Sturridge.

"When he plays football again it might be with another team abroad, but I can't help but think that there are several clubs in the Premier League who are missing a trick by not signing him," Richards told BBC Sport.

"I would include City in that, just to fill in while Sergio Aguero and Gabriel Jesus are injured. Even if he was half-fit, he would score goals in that side.

"At the moment it almost feels like people have forgotten how good he is, but Daniel still has time to remind them, and show everyone what he is really all about."
