Sturridge to continue thigh injury rehab in US

Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge will continue his rehabilitation from a thigh injury in the United States over Christmas.

The England forward spent 10 days in Los Angeles to help with his recovery and he will now link up with the medical team at the Boston Red Sox, who share the same owners as Liverpool in Fenway Sports Group.

Sturridge will be accompanied by Liverpool’s head of conditioning Glen Driscoll, in the hope Red Sox specialists may be able to assist in ending the striker’s persistent thigh problem.
