Luis Suarez- Liverpool to Arsenal
The saga involving Luis Suarez future has been dominating the back pages of most newspapers ever since the end of last season. Suarez was banned for 10 games for biting Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic in a Premier League game and he has since stated his desire to leave Liverpool, finally admitting that the reason for his desire to leave is that he wants to play in the Champions League. He has spent most of the summer flirting with Spanish giants Real Madrid and a move to the Santiago Bernabeu is believed to his preferred option. However, reports suggest that Madrid will only pay Liverpool £25 million for Suarez, well below the Reds valuation of the striker. Liverpool are demanding that interested clubs pay £40 million for Suarez, with the club stating that they will not even consider a bid that doesn’t meet their valuation. With Real Madrid not willing to pay £40 million, Arsenal have moved into pole position to sign the striker, with manager Arsene Wenger seeing Suarez as the perfect player to base his next great Arsenal team around. The Gunners could be ready to pay Liverpool their £40 million valuation and Suarez has already said that he is flattered to be linked with a move to the Emirates.
