Sturridge injured

LONDON: Liverpool’s injury-plagued striker Daniel Sturridge has sustained a hamstring problem likely to sideline him for a few weeks, according to widespread British media reports on Wednesday. The 26-year-old has only recently recovered from knee and foot injuries and has made only three appearances for new Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, who was appointed in October, as a result. The last of those, a substitute appearance in Sunday’s 2-0 defeat at Newcastle United, is thought to have resulted in a hamstring strain. But media outlets said Sturridge would be unavailable for “weeks rather than months”.
