It's a London thing: West Ham join Chelsea in race for City starlet Sturridge

West Ham are making a bold bid to tempt Daniel Sturridge into joining them. Chelsea have a deal in place for the Manchester City striker, 19, who is a free agent but will be subject to a development compensation claim of around £10million. The prospect of working with Gianfranco Zola is appealing to Sturridge but Chelsea remain favourites.
