West Ham ‘reluctant’ to meet Sturridge asking price

West Ham are interested in bringing Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge to the London Stadium, however, are reluctant on meeting Liverpool’s asking price of £40 million, according to the Daily Mail.

Slaven Bilic is desperate to add to his attacking options, as the Hammers only scored 47 goals in their 38 league games during the last campaign.

Paris Saint-Germain are another side rumoured to be looking at the Englishman, who’s season was interrupted regularly by injury, only managing seven goals in all competitions.

He hasn’t been a regular starter even when fit under manager Jurgen Klopp, with the Reds thinking about cashing in on the 27-year-old to fund a major summer spending spree that will start with the £39m arrival of Mohamed Salah.

Bilic has looked at a few attacking options already over the course of the summer, including Manchester City striker Kelechi Ihenacho. West Ham can all but guarantee Sturridge regular first team football, which may persuade him to pursue a move to the Hammers.
