Daniel Sturridge has vowed to stay and fight for his place at Liverpool.

The England striker was shipped out on loan to relegated West Brom last January, and was last month linked with a move to Turkish giants Besiktas.

But the 28-year-old is back at Anfield and determined to prove himself to boss Jurgen Klopp, having featured in all three of the Reds' pre-season friendlies so far this summer.

“I see myself staying at Liverpool, hopefully being part of the team week in, week out,” said Sturridge.

“Pre-season is going well, so for me it's keeping my head down and building on that. I’m excited about the season ahead and it feels great to be back.”

Sturridge is set to feature against Blackburn on Thursday at Ewood Park before Klopp's squad embark on their US tour.

“Pre-season has started well for me and the team,” he added. “I am feeling great and can't wait to get the season under way.

“We have the tour to come where we face some great teams like Man United, Man City and Dortmund.”
