The Los Blancos were linked with Suarez early in the summer but
the interests frizzled out as they concentrated on buying Gareth Bale
from Tottenham Hotspur. In the mean time, Premier League rivals Arsenal tried to lure the Uruguayan and had lodged two bids, but both were rejected. The saga took a nasty turn, as Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers
reacted angrily over his attempt to force through a move and even
ordered him to train away from the first team. In the end, Suarez
apologized to the players and the fans, while the Gunners conceded defeat in their chase. But, according to journalist Javier Matallanas, Madrid have re-opened
talks with the Reds over a possible transfer of Suarez. Rodgers has
said time and again that Suarez will not be sold in the summer, and with
only a week left in the transfer window, it will be interesting to see
how they react to Madrid’s offer. Madrid have Benzema and Morata as their main strikers, but the
Frenchman’s future has come under scrutiny in recent weeks despite his
agent cooling down talks linking him with Arsenal. Madrid are on the verge of making a record breaking signing of Bale,
but money won’t be a issue for them if they intend on making another big
money move for Suarez. The club could look to dispense with the
services of Coentrao, Benzema, Ozil and Di Maria, which would be more
than enough to pay for the arrival of Suarez. The question however is, if it is a ploy from the Spanish media to
unsettle Liverpool & Suarez? Or will this nightmare unfold in front
of the Reds right at the end?
