Liverpool have emphatically
turned down a £30m bid from Arsenal for their striker Luis Suarez.
Arsenal's approach for Liverpool striker Luis Suarez is a sign of ambition but in reality is doomed to fail.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger really admire Suarez wonderful attacking talent
but it seems there will be a lot of obstacles on the way to landing the 25 year
old Uruguayan.
"Liverpool know too well how it would be greeted by
supporters if they sold their world-class striker to Arsenal and Suarez himself
has publicly claimed his discontent comes from what he perceives - somewhat
fancifully - as his harsh treatment by the English media.
"This surely rules out a move within the Premier League.
"Arsenal's interest in Suarez may reach the ears of those at Real
Madrid - the striker's most likely next destination if he leaves Anfield - and
remind them they are willing to pursue other targets as they try to get their
own long-drawn out deal to price Gonzalo Higuain away from the Bernabeu over
the line."
However, the deal is understood and it was
immediately rejected.
Suarez is currently on a break after playing for Uruguay
in the Confederations Cup in Brazil
and is not scheduled to return to Merseyside until the end of the month, at
which time his future should become clearer.
