Chelsea sign Sturridge

Chelsea have confirmed the signing of promising young striker Daniel Sturridge on a four-year deal after his contract expired at Manchester City.

The 19-year-old's fee has not been disclosed, but was settled by a tribunal.

 

Sturridge, nephew of former Derby forward Dean, made 26 appearance for City last season, scoring four times.

 

The England Under-20 forward will now join up with the rest of the first-team squad when they return for the start of pre-season training next week.
