Aston Villa target Sturridge determined to stay with Trabzonspor

Daniel Sturridge is determined to stay with Trabzonspor.

Sturridge is set to reject a move to Aston Villa this summer because of his desire to play in the Champions League with Trabzonspor.

The 30-year-old has been at the Turkish club since the summer after his contract with Liverpool expired, scoring seven goals in 16 appearances.

Fanatik says the striker is keen to stay where he is.

Sturridge's contract expires in the summer of 2021 and then there is an option to extend it by a further 12 months.

The report also claims that Villa tried to make a move for Sturridge in January when they were desperately hunting for a new striker.
