ISL 2017: 5 Midfielders who could join in January

#4 Danny Guthrie

Guthrie has made more than 200 appearances in the Premier League and Football League

Danny Guthrie is a 30-year old English midfielder who has represented the England Under-16s at the international stage. He began his footballing career at the Manchester United Youth Academy and then moved to the Liverpool Academy at the age of 16.

Guthrie made his senior Liverpool debut in 2005 and started his first match for the Merseyside club in the UEFA Champions League against Turkish side Galatasaray. He went out on loan spells to Southampton and Bolton Wanderers before signing a four-year contract with Newcastle United. Over the course of four years, he made 92 appearances for the Magpies in the Premier League. He was released and joined Reading on a three-year deal.

Guthrie went on loan to Fulham for the 2015 season and then signed for Championship side Blackburn Rovers where he plied his trade until the last season.

Now that Guthrie has practically finished his career in England, India could be a promising destination for the gritty midfielder, especially with presence of English managers like Steve Coppell and Teddy Sheringham in the ISL.
