Coral’s seven superb destinations for dangerman Danny Ings

Brendan Rodgers is odds-on 4/9 favourite to pip rivals to the post for in-demand dangerman Ings’ services, with Daniel Sturridge’s injury record a continuing concern and disappointing duo Mario Balotelli and Rickie Lambert looking likely to leave Liverpool.

Manchester United
The Red Devils are also rumoured to be off-loading several strikers this summer, with Monaco-owned forward Radamel Falcao and on-loan Javier Hernandez looking the most likely for Old Trafford exits.

Ings, a 9/2 punt to arrive in the red half of Manchester, may not fancy being restricted to a supporting role behind skipper Wayne Rooney in the pecking order, however.

Real Sociedad
It seems former United and Everton manager David Moyes also has his eye on recruiting soon-to-be free agent Ings, who is an outside shout at 25/1 to choose Sociedad as his next stop. Should the sharpshooter opt for some Spanish sun, he would become the latest in a long line of British talents to take a chance on the continent.

Speaking recently, Royals boss Moyes said: “I think we have a chance to sign Ings. I cannot confirm if he will come or not, but I would like him to.”

Southampton
Generously priced at 10/1 to tempt Ings to St Mary’s, Southampton could poach the predator, who has hit 10 Premier League goals this campaign, to bolster the Saints’ ranks this summer if they secure Europa League football.

With Italy international Graziano Pelle stumbling at times this season, Ronald Koeman will surely need more striking support if he is to compete on the continental front.

View Ings’ striking prowess:

Swansea City
The Swans have had an excellent season under manager Garry Monk, but have not yet adequately replaced marksman Wilfried Bony, who left the Welsh club for Manchester City during the Winter window.

Underrated Ings has potential to lead the line for a possession-orientated team, to prove his is not simply a fox in the box and fine finisher. Monk could be the perfect coach to coax more out of the attacker, who could see Swansea (20/1 to snap-up the current Clarets striker) as a smaller step up, yet more likely to help him develop.

Tottenham
It is no secret Spurs (9/2 to snare Ings) have been searching for striker, with misfiring flops Roberto Soldado and Emmanuel Adebayor mooted to leave White Hart Lane.

Ings would be an ideal recruit for Mauricio Pochettino’s men then, as a partner for compatriot and England Under-21 teammate Harry Kane, or as a rotation option to ease the pressure on Tottenham’s leading light.
