Sturridge has been without a club since he was let go by Turkish side Trabzonspor in March on the back of his four-month ban for betting-related offenses.
The 30-year-old, who has also enjoyed loan spells at Bolton Wanderers and West Bromwich Albion in the past, boasts 76 goals in 218 Premier League appearances.
Sturridge is currently keeping fit in the United States of America but despite approaches from several clubs across Europe, the former Manchester City youngster is desperate to get a taste of the English top flight again.
"We have options around the world but I'm an English player and I've always loved playing in the Premier League," Sturridge told Sky Sports.
"I believe I've got a lot to give to the Premier League and I would say that's my first choice. I do feel I have unfinished business so I would like to go back and play there.
"I'm open to playing in other leagues, it's not just the Premier League I'm going to consider, but to come back to England and give my best would be a huge option for me.
"I'm very excited, I'm hungrier than ever and I'm totally focused on the next chapter."
"I'd like to think I'm one of the better options for teams," he added.
"I'm a free agent and I've played for a lot of top clubs around the world. I'm just ready to help a team be successful and to be a big part of their plans.
"I believe there's a lot left in these legs. Although I've been around a long time, I would say that there's miles on the clock but this vehicle has a lot left."
