Sturridge signs for Chelsea

Chelsea announced Friday they had signed teenage striker Daniel Sturridge from Premier League rivals Manchester City on a four-year deal after the player’s contract at Eastlands expired.

Although the two clubs could not agree on a fee, the 19-year-old Sturridge’s age means City are entitled to receive some money as part of his move and a fee will now be settled by a tribunal.

England Under-20 international Sturridge, the nephew of former Derby County forward Dean, scored four goals in 26 appearances for City last season.
