DONE DEAL? Ex-Liverpool striker Sturridge joining Perth Glory after Mallorca move blocked

Former Liverpool and England striker Daniel Sturridge is signing for Australian side Perth Glory.

The 32-year old has been training with Real Mallorca who had been hoping to sign Sturridge in January.

La Liga side Mallorca were unable to register Sturridge in August as they already had their quota of three non EU players on their roster.

They were planning to move one out to make room for Sturridge in the winter window however he was keen to return to competitive action as soon as possible.

Though he has maintained his fitness, Sturridge has not played competitive football since cutting short his spell with Turkish side Trabzonspor in March 2020.
