Ahead of Fulham’s Carabao Cup semi-final second leg with Liverpool at Craven Cottage, he joined Emma Sanders pitchside to discuss the game.

But many were distracted by his decision to wear a baggy, wooly grey coat with a pink and grey scarf.

And it led many to take to social media to praise the eye-catching choice of outfit.

One said: “Have to admire Daniel Sturridge for coming on TV wearing that.”

Another replied: “I love how unapologetically himself Daniel Sturridge is when he’s a pundit.”

A third responded: “Daniel Sturridge’s outfit tonight is excellent.

“Fantastic scarf and coat combo.”

And a fourth said: “Daniel Sturridge’s scarf an early contender for best performer of the evening.”

Back in August, football fans were loving Sturridge as he appeared on Super Sunday alongside Micah Richards and Roy Keane.

The former Chelsea and Manchester City attacker, who earned 26 England caps, showed off his vibrant personality next to a less-than-impressed Keane.

Sturridge also gave those watching a sample of his singing as he performed Usher live on air.
