da bet7: Former Sunderland player and current talkSPORT presenter Micky Gray believes that Newcastle United should “absolutely” try to sign Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge this summer.
da leao: The 27-year-old has been hampered by injuries this season, which has restricted him to just five starts in the Premier League under manager Jurgen Klopp.
Injuries have always been a problem for the England international, but this season in particular he has suffered numerous setbacks.
Due to his regular unavailability and the fact that he has dropped down the pecking order, questions have been raised over his long-term future at Anfield.
The Guardian recently suggested that Sturridge has already played his final game for the Reds as a hip injury is expected to keep him sidelined for the remainder of the campaign.
Now that Newcastle have earned their way back into the Premier League thanks to a 4-1 triumph over Preston North End on Monday night, Gray thinks that Sturridge is worth buying, despite his injury record.
He said on talkSPORT:
“Newcastle would snap your hands off right now for somebody like Daniel Sturridge. He is a goalscorer who is going to get you 15, 20 goals a season.
“They might only get 25 to 30 games out of him at a push but those 15, 20 goals will keep you in the Premier League for another season. They should absolutely go and get him.”
