Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is confident that Luis Suarez will stay at the club, and the Northern Irish manager has also told reporters that the Uruguayan forward understands why the club have so far rejected all offers from Arsenal.
It is understood that Arsenal have made Suarez their top transfer priority before the transfer window closes and at this time the player is happy to stay at Anfield despite constant speculation linking him with a move away.
"Luis is happy. He totally understands the club's point of view," said Rodgers, when speaking of Liverpool's decision to reject Arsenal's offer for the forward.
"He's in a difficult position in terms of not being able to play because of his suspension - he will sit out the first six games and he will miss playing football.
"But he's working hard and remains part of the group. He hasn't been moping about.
"It's obviously difficult when you come back after a break but he has settled in and has been working well.
"He needs to get up to speed and we will continue to work to get all the players ready for the first game of the season."
