Daniel Sturridge

[JDY 1,290]

According to this Mirror article and a few other on the Daily Mail, his contract runs till June 2014. There would have been a storm of articles and rumours linking him to other clubs if he had just a year left. Even if he was to leave in a year, Chelsea would have to receive compensation from his new club as he'd still be under 23. I'm pretty sure contract negotiations to extend his contract would begin this season.

I'm pretty certain it's next summer.

We'll find out for sure pretty soon but from the English press all I can make out is that he has 2 more years left on his current contract, either way I expect him to get a new contract soon.

From chelseafc.com in July 2009 when Sturridge first signed. Says there that he got a four year deal and that would be ending in 2013, like I already said and like every source is reporting. He hasn't got any contract extensions since joining so it's pretty obvious that his current deal is expiring next year. I would trust the club's official website over Daily Mail and Daily Mirror any day.

I think his contract probably had an automatic extension based on appearance for the club, national team etc. I don't believe Chelsea would let the contract of a young, talented (potential) England international run out without at least attempting to offer him a new one. Sturridge is in my opinion better than Walcott and has greater potential but Arsenal are looking to offer him(Walcott) a 5 year contract with top wages with a year of his current contract left, even though he's demanding more.

What annoys me about Sturridge being linked elsewhere, which I don't mind tbh, as he is notoriously selfish and clearly has a bad attitude, is that if he were a city or Liverpool player doing what's he's done for us - scored goals from the wing and had a successful spell at Bolton etc we would literally be quoted like 25-30m as he's English and people take the piss out of us for fees anyway. If we did sell him he'd probably go for 15m which is frustrating to think of..

[BlueJewel 56]

I don't think he has a bad attitude, he's quite humble in the interviews of him I've listened to. His problem is that a lot often he tries to prove how good he is and why he deserves to start, in so doing he sometimes makes the wrong choice. He should be cut some slack though, he has only been playing top level football for only a year and a half now, he is still learning. Chelsea would be making a big mistake if they let Sturridge go, I can see him developing into a world class CF or RW and a full England international in a couple of years.

Just read that Liverpool have bid £15m for Sturridge. Hope is doesn't happen.

They're interested, no doubt. But they still have Carroll on their books and we have no replacement should he leave. Seems unlikely at the moment.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,744]

We surely cant have him leave for free next summer though....

Him playing no part today sure didnt do anything to silence the rumour mill.

[nyikolajevics 2,428]

We can't let him go. Maybe he will never be a world-class player, but we need him. Torres can't play 60 games this year. Selling Danny for 15 million pounds and buying Taison for 10 million would be the biggest dissapointment since we let Joe Cole leave us.

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

now way we losing him with 6 days left in the window. studge belongs here, will grow into somthing special.

[Jose M 140]

WTF you guy seriously think we would sell Danny?

I think we don't want to sell him, but he might be unhappy. He has only played a few minutes in this season so far. And if he wants to leave, we can't force him to stay.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,744]

WTF you guy seriously think we would sell Danny?

We have to if he doesnt sign a new contract. He is worth too much to just let walk away.

[Jose M 140]

All squads are trying to keep as many English players as possible because of the new rules. Its really in Danny's hands, if he's not willing to play and fight for his position then maybe he should go. RDM clearly said a few weeks ago that Sturridge was in his plans!

[Kinol 337]

If we aint going to let him play any time soon then i hope he. Thats the best for him. I cant see him going from being almost a starter last season to a bench warmer. I was dissapointed that he didnt get to play some minutes today.

[Chelsea? 892]

Woulda loved to see him start in the super cup but I guess FT9 has to play against his old team.
