Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has reportedly had a change of heart over Daniel Sturridge and will look to block his departure in the January transfer window.
The England striker had been linked with a move to Premier League rivals West Ham, who are known to be on the hunt for a statement signing up front this winter after their poor start to the season.
However, Klopp is eager to keep Sturridge at Anfield and is not actively looking to sell anyone this January, apart from out-of-favour defender Mamadou Sakho, according to the Daily Mirror.
Sturridge has not been a regular for Liverpool for much of this season, but looks a valuable option from the bench given his superb scoring record down the years since his move from Chelsea.
