And the odds show that the Hoops are well ahead at 11/2, whereas the Light Blues are 6/1, followed by  Crystal Palace and Leicester City.

The 29-year-old’s recent achievement was lifting the Champions League, though he didn’t contribute a lot. He has made 25 appearances this season, often as a substitute, bagging 4 goals.

The former Chelsea star moved to Anfield in 2013 and had a massive impact in the beginning. But his goal scoring form has declined over the years due to his injury-prone nature.

The 26-capped England international commenced his career with Manchester City and had his short spells with Chelsea and West Bromwich Albion.

He, alongside his team-mate Alberto Moreno, is now available as a free agent.

Should the Hoops sign Sturridge?

Odsonne Edouard, the Celts’ primary striker, has been in brilliant shape,  bagging a flurry of goals in the recently concluded season.

With Leigh Griffiths set to return to the fold, Sturridge would be considered an unwanted addition.

And there would never be a guaranteed place in the playing 11 should Sturridge opt out to move to Celtic Park and will be required to battle hard for winning his place.
