Luis Suarez’s unbelievable transfer U-turn…
Liverpool and Uruguay striker Luis Suarez has changed his mind, and will happily stay at the club, ending any possibility that he could join Arsenal or Real Madrid this month.
Uruguayan journalist Martin Chaquero has remarkably claimed that Suarez is staying because of the warmth the supporters have shown him.
“For now, due to all of the people’s affection, I will be staying at LFC,” the 26-year-old has reportedly said.
Despite his comments about the club, Reds fans originally gave the striker huge support during friendly matches in Australia and at Steven Gerrard’s testimonial, and it seems this could have reluctantly influenced his decision. The fact that no European heavyweight has come in for him though, may have also played its part in Suarez’s U-turn.
If the reports are true, the striker could also be set to apologise, as manager Brendan Rodgers demanded. Suarez’s scathing attack on the club last week left few believing there was any chance he could stay, and this apparent change of attitude will leave Liverpool fans delighted, but nervous another U-turn is just round the corner.
Here’s Chaquero’s tweet that broke late on Tuesday evening. He also claims in a follow up tweet that the striker will now sign a new contract at Anfield, too.
ATENCIÓN. Luis Suárez me confirma que no se ira de Liverpool. El apoyo de los hinchas en las últimas semanas influyeron en la decision.
