West Ham United have been linked with Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge.
West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic has raved about the talents of Liverpool striker Daniel Strurridge in the Daily Mirror.
West Ham have been linked with a move for Sturridge, ahead of the summer transfer window.
And when asked whether he would be making a move for the England international, Bilic went on a charm offensive.
“We are going to see. We have our list of strikers,” the Croatian boss said.
“If you talk about him as a player, especially if you go back two or three seasons he was unbelievable. But [at the time] he wasn’t a subject for West Ham.
“Now he plays very rarely, but I watched Stoke against Liverpool the other day. He came on and, with a couple of passes, he broke their defence. He split them up some great passing.
“When he is on fire, [Sturridge] is a great player.”
Sturridge has endured a difficult season at Anfield this time around, as he has struggled to break into Liverpool’s starting line-up.
The 27-year-old striker has made just five starts for Liverpool in the Premier League and appears to be heading towards the exit door.
West Ham has been touted as a potential destination, as Bilic looks to improve his forward options at the London Stadium.
Sturridge has had difficulties staying off the treatment table, but when he is fit his quality remains undoubted.
Sturridge could be next in action for Liverpool on Monday, when the Merseyside outfit take on Watford.
