07/03/2009 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Highly-rated Manchester City striker Daniel Sturridge has completed his transfer to FA Cup winners Chelsea.
The 19-year-old, who has penned a four-year contract at Stamford Bridge, will join up the rest of the Blues' first-team squad for preseason training next week.
He made his Premier League debut for City in February 2007 when he came on as a substitute in the 2-0 home defeat to Reading.
Sturridge has scored six goals in 12 starts and 20 substitute appearances for Mark Hughes' side, the last being the 4-2 win against West Bromwich in April.
However, Sturridge angered Hughes earlier this year when he demanded a massive price raise to put him in line with some of the club's higher earners.
After the teenager had rejected the offer of a new Eastlands contract in May, Hughes had said: "We put in another offer but that was declined so we won't be going back.
"We've not got much headroom to negotiate and I'm disappointed."
Sturridge had been at City since 2003 and represented England at the Under-17, 19 and 20 levels.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value
If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).
For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.
TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.
"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,' it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."
"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.
Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
