Luis Suarez makes dramatic U-turn; rubbishes reports on wanting to stay at Anfield

Suarez apparently stated the affection of the fans had won him over

Unsettled Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez‘s transfer saga took a drastic U-turn on Wednesday after the 26-year old trashed reports claiming he will stay on at Anfield and play for the Reds in the upcoming season.

Just a couple of days ago it seemed as if the club’s star striker had finally made up his mind and decided to play another season for Liverpool when Daily Mail quoted Suarez as saying to an Uruguayan daily: “For now, owing to all the affection of the people, I would be staying.”

However, following Uruguay’s outright 4-2 victory over hosts Japan in Tokyo yesterday, the gritty Uruguayan exclaimed: “I didn’t say that. Maybe someone else did and the main thing is that I am here now with the national team.”

Over the past couple of weeks, Suarez has made it clear that he has no intentions of staying back at Anfield after their dismal performance last season, finishing seventh in the Premier League.

While manager Brendan Rodgers believing that the issue between the striker and the club could be resolved, and an Uruguayan tabloid claiming Suarez had decided to remain with Liverpool, it appeared as if the debate had at last come to a conclusion, but now it still remains to be seen what the future is for the controversial footballer.
