Suarez: still on Arsenal's radar

Arsenal manager Wenger still tracking Luis Suarez

16 December 2013 - 12:48

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is still open to making a move for Liverpool's striker Luis Suarez. The forward has scored 16 goals so far this season despite only playing in around 10 games for the Reds.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • The impressive season Suarez has been having has boosted the player's value and seen many clubs consider a transfer move for the Uruguayan in the January transfer window.<br />

    Arsenal were amongst the teams who were hoping to acquire the player last summer, but a deal fell through after Liverpool could not agree a transfer fee with the Gunners.<br />

    Despite that, Arsene Wenger still harbours some hope that one day a deal can be completed for the striker: "I think that every defender in England hates playing against him. He has a strong, provocative personality. From the information I gathered on him it appears that on a day-to-day level he is really easy to work with.<br />

    "Also that he's respectful, he loves training, he's an angel. He turns into a demon when he's on the pitch. We all dream about having players like that."
