Arsenal Are Not “anywhere near” For Suarez

Arsenal are not “anywhere near” matching Liverpool’s valuation of striker Luis Suarez, according to Reds manager Brendan Rodgers, reports the Liverpool Echo.


Liverpool rejected an Arsenal club-record bid of £40m plus £1, but Suarez wants to talk to the London club.


“If Arsenal want the player then they have to produce the value for the player,” Rodgers said.


“There was an offer a few weeks ago of £35m and two weeks later it is now £40m and £1. I don’t think it is anywhere near the value of what he is worth.”
