Daniel Sturridge, unattached and England

Daniel Sturridge was handed a worldwide four-month ban from football at the start of March after being found guilty of breaching gambling rules, according to the BBC.

While "devastated," it leaves the Englishman plenty of time to ponder his next move, which according to Turkish journalist ​Haluk Ayyildiz, could be to Miami.

Ayylidiz says Sturridge has already agreed to tentatively join Beckham and his team in Fort Lauderdale after his ban is finished.

Roger Martinez, Club America and Colombia

Miami already tried to land Club America forward Roger Martinez earlier this year, according to One Football, however the Colombian striker turned down the offer in order to wait for a knock on the door from Europe.

With no offers from Europe having presented themselves, however, the two parties re-entered negotiations late last month over a $15 million transfer, according to AS.

Funes Mori has established himself as one of North America's most fearsome front men over the past four-and-a-half seasons with Monterrey, hitting 95 goals in 186 games.

However his contract with Mexican champion expires in 2022, and Sports Illustrated reports Miami is interested in the 28-year-old, who Monterrey has made available for $10 million to avoid losing him on a free the year after next.

Edinson Cavani, PSG and Uruguay

Landing Edinson Cavani would be a huge coup for Miami. The Uruguayan hitman recently took his goal tally for Paris Saint Germain to 200 in 298 games, while he's scored another 200 plus for his former clubs and his country in what has been an illustrious laying career.

With PSG having replaced the 33-year-old with Mauro Icardi as its first choice striker however and his contract expiring this summer, his days in France seem numbered.

FourFourTwo reports Miami are interested, but will have to fend off Atletico Madrid, which already tried to secure his signature over Christmas.
