Luis Suarez has spoken rather candidly of his desire to link up with fellow countryman Diego Lugano at big-spending Paris St. Germain. Carlo Ancellotti's side currently sit at the top of the Ligue 1 table, just one point ahead of rivals Montpellier after 27 rounds this season.
Luis Suarez Invites Paris St. Germain Move
Luis Suarez has welcomed the idea of a move to Paris Saint-Germain, expressing a desire to link up with international teammate Diego Lugano in an interview certain to annoy Liverpool fans.
Suarez seemed to openly encourage PSG to make a move for him during a feature based on Lugano on TV station Canal+ yesterday, telling them;
There are many big clubs with such a reputation that want to build a top team and Paris is one of those teams that is recruiting to strengthen. I would love if (me and Lugano) could play together.
The French side have been linked with many high-profile names in the past, including the likes of Milan playmaker Alexandre Pato, Arsenal's Alex Song and Napoli striker Edinson Cavani. However, none of these moves have come to fruition yet as the club look to build on what is already a very good side.
David Beckham was reportedly close to signing last summer but instead chose to sign a new deal with Los Angeles Galaxy, where he should see out his career. Suarez however seems to be the only one who is actively seeking a move to Paris, which won't go down well with Liverpool supporters as the Merseyside team are well off the pace for a Champions League place, and could even slip out of the top eight in the Premier League by the season's end.
Manager Kenny Dalglish has moved quickly to rubbish any speculation by stating;
Nobody has spoken to us but it wouldn’t make any difference. If they (PSG) reversed the charges, the call would not get taken.
It’s the right thing for Dalglish to say, but with a team on the slide and in this age where players have so much of the power in these situations, it’s likely Liverpool will be looking for a new talisman in the summer transfer window.
