(Reuters) - Former Liverpool and England striker Daniel Sturridge has joined Perth Glory to help turn the A-League side into a winning team said the club's head coach Richard Garcia.
Sturridge has signed a one-year contract with the West Australian outfit for the coming season, which kicks off on Nov. 20 when Perth face Adelaide United."But the most impressive thing is that when we spoke to him he definitely had the mindset that he wanted to add to the team, and that he was going to be one of the players in the squad and what he wanted to do was come in and win something.
"That's what we want. That's the type of atmosphere we want to create, that everyone in the team is going to pull their weight." He signed for Trabzonspor later that year but left the Turkish side by mutual consent in March 2020 and had been without a club until signing with Perth."We're not talking about a guy that's past his prime," the former Liverpool goalkeeper told a-league.com.au.
