Trotters take Sturridge on loan
Sturridge goes straight into the squad to face Wolves on Wednesday after seeing his first-team opportunities limited at Stamford Bridge. Owen Coyle is delighted to have the 21-year-old on board after missing out in his pursuit of Arsenal's Carlos Vela, who opted to join West Brom. He said: "I am really pleased to have Daniel with us. "He is a terrific young talent and one of the most exciting strikers in the country. We are all looking forward to working with him." Birmingham-born Sturridge was part of the Chelsea squad that won the league and cup double last term after beginning his career at Manchester City. Sturridge said: "I spoke with the manager and he outlined what he hopes to achieve and his plans. "It was an easy decision to sign for Bolton and I am looking forward to linking up with the squad on Tuesday. "It has been a very busy and exciting day. I found out that the club were interested in me over the weekend and everything has happened fairly quickly."
