Liverpool forward open to offers

Uh-Oh, Look away now ‘Pool fans.

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has admitted that he would consider offers from Champions League clubs this summer says the Liverpool Echo. Deep breaths everybody.

In truth it should come as no surprise that Suarez is thinking about a move. He has been far-and-away the best player this season in a Liverpool side who are still struggling to return to the upper echelons of the Premier League. The Uruguyan has, in fact, been one of the very best in the league this term, scoring 29 goals in 40 appearances for Brendan Rodger’s side. It was inevitable that his outstanding performances would attract some attention and with the Red’s looking unlikely to pick up even a Europa League place, the 25-year-old was always likely to think very carefully about the opportunity to play in Europe’s top club competition.

“I am very happy at Liverpool but you never know in football,” said Suarez, speaking in his homeland ahead of their World Cup qualifier with Paraguay on Friday.

“A player’s ambition is always there, the ambition of wanting to play in elite teams is always there.

“I’m in a world-class team, an elite team like Liverpool. We have to realise we have a new manager who is imposing a philosophy and a way of playing that the players are adapting to as best we can. We hope that it will bear fruit next year.

“If another team comes around with more prospects of competing in international club competition games, which is willing to have me, they are welcome.

“We would talk to the club, we would see if I want to go, if I don’t want to go.”

Worrying times for the Scousers.
