LIVERPOOL: Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has admitted Luis Suarez could be allowed to leave Anfield for the kind of massive fee Real Madrid are reportedly willing to pay for Tottenham’s Gareth Bale.
The controversial Uruguay forward has made it clear he would like to move to a club playing Champions League football.
Arsenal are the only team to have tabled a bid for Suarez.
However, Rodgers conceded Suarez has his price.
“Every player has a valuation but you have to look at the market,” said Rodgers. “With Gareth Bale they are talking about £100m and Gareth Bale and Luis Suarez were arguably the two best players in the Premier League last season.
“You can’t say that Gareth Bale is valued at over 100 per cent more. We are a club with strong beliefs in what we are doing and nobody will be moving out of here,” he added.
Suarez played for 30 minutes as a substitute in Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Olympiakos yesterday, a testimonial for club captain Steven Gerrard which has raised around £1m for the player’s charitable foundation. AFP
