Strikers available in the January transfer window – Part II

Luis Suarez

Interested Clubs: Bayern Munich, Real Madrid

Luis Suarez – Ambitions aplenty

Brilliant-yet-crazed Uruguayan could leave Liverpool in January, that is, if the correct bid is received. Arsenal’s £40 million + £1 bid in the summer means Liverpool will be more careful with the handling of Suarez this time around.

Liverpool would not want to sell in the Premier League as they are in blistering form and would not want to hurt their team’s morale by selling their top star to a direct rival. That only leaves big guns like Bayern Munich and Real Madrid as possible destinations for Suarez.

Bayern Munich are linked with Suarez because of his agent’s relationship with Pep Guardiola. Meanwhile, the Real Madrid link fails to fade away. Luis Suarez is an ambitious player and his ambitions will be best served at a big European club like the ones he is linked with.

However, chances of Liverpool selling him in the middle of the season, when he is on top form and when they have a proper chance of Champions League qualification at the end of the season, are very less.

It would require a massive bid from any team for Liverpool to even think about selling Suarez.

Possibility of departure: Very low
