A £49million bid for Liverpool’s Luis Suarez is being prepared in an attempt to finally snatch the Liverpool player and end the saga which has gone on for over a month.

Twist…

Suarez had been adamant to leave Anfield, with the Uruguayan dominating the back pages with talk of a big money move away from the Reds. However a lack of competitive Premier League interest and only a laughable £25million valuation from Real Madrid left Arsenal as the sole team looking to gain his services.

Yet earlier on this week the seemingly safe assumption that Suarez would not be part of the Liverpool side next year came under threat, as reports claimed that the 26-year-old had performed the most unlikely of U-turns and was even considering a new contract at Anfield.

…and turn….

Quotes from trusted source, Latin American sports-man Martin Charquero, claimed that Suarez would indeed remain the Reds number 7:

“Luis Suarez confirms to me he will not leave Liverpool. The support of the fans has influenced his ­decision.” Charquero tweeted.

…and twist again.

You thought that was the end of it didn’t you? In a saga which has more twists and turns than your average ball of string, Suarez denied making the comment and therefore not ruling out the possibility of a move.

The £49million is bound to make Liverpool think seriously about selling. The player has failed to make it clear that he wants to stay and the fans’ reaction is largely one of disgust at the lack of respect he has shown the club which stood by him when, at times, they really shouldn’t have.

The £49million is also likely to be the last throw of the dice, with Wenger unlikely to breach the British transfer record.
