Sturridge left Liverpool at the end of the 2018-19 campaign following the expiration of his final contract at Anfield, bringing to an end his six-year stay on Merseyside.

Trabzonspor snapped up the 30-year-old on a free transfer back in August, tying the ex-England international down to a two-year deal at the Senol Gunes Stadium, but he has since been unable to hold down a regular place in the first team.
