Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge reveals that he wants to play for Team GB in the upcoming Olympic Games.

Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge has revealed that he would like to play for Team GB in the upcoming Olympic Games.

The 22-year-old made his debut for England in November's 1-0 win against Sweden at Wembley Stadium.

When asked by Chelsea's official website if he would like to take part, Sturridge said: "Definitely, without a doubt. It's the type of opportunity that only comes along once in a lifetime.

"It's the first time Great Britain have had a team competing in the football tournament and obviously we are the home nation, so it would be a chance to make history.

"My focus for this summer is on the European Championships but generally speaking, the Olympics is a great event."

Sturridge has scored ten goals in all competitions for the Blues this season.
