Chelsea boss Rafa Benitez has stated he is unsure whether striker Daniel Sturridge will still be at the club at the end of the transfer window.

Goal.com revealed that the England international move closer to joining Liverpool with Brendan Rodgers keen on finding attackers who can play in positions across the front line.

Asked if Sturridge was set for a move, Benitez insisted that he did not know anything about a potential transfer, but says the market is unpredictable.

Benitez told the Fulham & Hammersmith Chronicle: “We will see. You never know in the market.

“I don’t know what [the press] said, because I didn’t read the press,” the Chelsea manager added.

The Spaniard says it has been difficult to get a gauge on the 23-year-old’s due to his injury problems this season.

He added: “He was training with us yesterday. But that was just one training session. So now we have to wait, because he was injured.

“To be fair, I only saw him three times last week, so he couldn’t train too much in this time with him.”
