At one point, Daniel Sturridge appeared to be one of English football's most promising strikers, being a key part of the pulsating attack that fired Liverpool on their Premier League title challenge in 2013/2014.
But his career since those halcyon days eight years ago has nosedived, with the striker suffering betting bans and being battered by injury problems. Sturridge arrived at Liverpool in 2013 in a £12million deal from Chelsea, having struggled to make the grade at Stamford Bridge or previous club Manchester City.
The move to Anfield sparked his career into life as he developed a reputation as a reliable goalscorer. His partnership with Luis Suarez was the foundation of the Reds' ultimately unsuccessful title challenge, during which he scored 24 goals in all competitions.
