Liverpool certain Suarez will stay at club

22 May 2013 - 04:16

Luis Suarez has arguably been one of Liverpool's greatest footballers for over a decade, and according to manager Brendan Rodgers the club's owners remain ambitious and have no plans to sell their star player.

The Uruguayan has been linked with a move to Man City and Chelsea in recent weeks - but it's understood the striker will not be allowed to leave.<br />

&ldquo;Listen, every player has their price but there&rsquo;s certainly no pressure for the club to sell him. We&rsquo;re trying to build that bit of quality so he&rsquo;s not for sale,&rdquo; Rodgers said.<br />

&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t have any doubts there will be interest in him this summer, because he&rsquo;s up there.<br />

&ldquo;There&rsquo;s a small percentage of players who are world class and he&rsquo;s in that bracket, so I don&rsquo;t think it will be too dissimilar to when I first came in last summer, with clubs making their interest known.<br />

&ldquo;People will want to take him, but I think we all recognise how integral he is. The owners have been absolutely unequivocal in their resolve in terms of wanting to keep him.<br />

&ldquo;I had a meeting with the owners when they came over and talked about lots of stuff and that was one of them.&rdquo;
