This Luis Suarez saga looks set to last the distance doesn’t it?
Liverpool are determined to keep hold of the 26-year-old by placing a £50 million price-tag on his head.
We have supposedly offered two bids for the Uruguay international, a £35 million one and then newly an audacious yet rather cheeky £40 million plus a £1. Both bids were turned down, with Brendan Rodgers now insisting his star man is worth at least £50 million after seeing Edinson Cavani join PSG for around £54-55 million from Napoli.
Despite the aggro he receives from the media here in England, Suarez appears keen to join Arsenal as Arsene Wenger’s side can provide ultimately what he really desires – Champions League football.
It’s been reported that we are preparing to go as high as £42.5 million, but this will almost certainly be rejected by the Merseyside club.
We all know of Suarez’s quality, as well as his controversial behaviour, but is he really worth £50 million?
Well with the way the transfer market is these days, £50 million isn’t too bad for a player of Suarez’s calibre to be honest.
It looks like a lot of money and I’m surprised we are still actually chasing him. But what is £50 million to a club with financial stability like Arsenal? We could easily afford to splash this out on the Uruguayan and still have some cash left in the kitty to bring in other recruits.
The fact is if you want top players you have to spend top dollar to get them, and Suarez is undoubtedly one of the most prolific forwards in world football today who would certainly take us to the next level.

Luiz is worth 50m definatly he is nt like Tores who proved othawise. Wenger need to move quickly on Luiz or he wil find himself wid another bunch of new deadwoods wat he is struggling to offfload. If he is ready wid 40m then sell Gervino and get 10m to add coz Luiz is better than Gerv, Arshvin n Santos combined.
