Ex-Liverpool Premier League winner ‘closing in’ on move which could soon see him face Man Utd

Ex-Red set for shock switch to Old Trafford

Former Liverpool star Daniel Sturridge is reportedly closing in on a move to Manchester United, which could see him face his old club in a thrilling Premier League clash. The striker, who won the Premier League title with Liverpool in 2014, has been without a club since leaving Turkish side Trabzonspor in March 2022.

According to various sources, Manchester United have offered Sturridge a short-term contract until the end of the season to bolster their attacking options. The Red Devils are currently facing a shortage up front, with Anthony Martial out injured and Cristiano Ronaldo's future at the club uncertain.

Sturridge keen on Old Trafford switch

Sturridge is said to be keen on a move to Old Trafford, despite his strong ties to Liverpool. The 33-year-old is eager to prove that he still has what it takes to perform at the highest level and believes that Manchester United can provide him with the platform to do so.

If the move goes through, Sturridge could find himself facing his former club Liverpool in a mouthwatering Premier League clash. The two sides are scheduled to meet at Anfield on March 5th, and it would be a fascinating occasion to see Sturridge lining up against his old team.

Sturridge's arrival at Manchester United would also add depth and experience to their attacking ranks. The former England international has scored over 100 Premier League goals throughout his career and has a wealth of experience playing at the highest level.

Whether Sturridge can rediscover his best form at Manchester United remains to be seen, but his potential arrival at Old Trafford is sure to excite fans and add another layer of intrigue to the upcoming Premier League title race.
