Confirmed by who?


ok a 40 mil release clause may apply! but if there was competition for him which i'm sure there would be that price could go up don't you think?


If the 40m release clause is true, then no the price wouldn't go up, as the clubs would just bid the minimum 40m to force us to sell, then spend the rest of the money on Suarez's wages. So at best a bidding war would get Suarez more money, not us.

Though with release clauses, do the buying club have to offer £40m upfront, or would say £20m upfront with the other £20m staggered over the net 2 years still trigger the clause?

No less than £60m- that allows us to replace him as well as to the squad with whatever else FSG give BR. Personally though, I don't think he will leave this summer. I reckon FSG gave BR 2 seasons to get back in the CL, so this transfer window and next season will be make or break for him. Suarez will follow suit I think.

One more season with us isn’t going to hurt him too much. It’s highly unlikely he’s going to lose his place is the Uruguay team if he keeps playing the way he has, so he’s not got that much to lose by sticking out another year with us. We should get in excess of £40m whether we sell him now, or next summer, but hopefully he stays for a long time.

If Suarez scores half the goals next season he has this season or has a bad season... His value will drop by 50%.
His stock/value is very high now cuzz he has had a great season and fsg .. Businessmen that they r... No this... Offers close or over 40m come in... Fsg will sell sell.

Remember wen Torres had that great season with us and city were ready to offer 70m... And the rest is history..

Yeah I fear you might be right there gnp, They'll be tempted thats for sure, but fear of the fans might stay their hand I hope. Good point about Torres, we were lucky to get 50m for him after he pouted about and done nothing for a year or more afterwards. I can hear Abromovich grinding his teeth all the way to here!

U think fsg give a fook abt wat the fans want, think.

They have got ayre to keep the fans karm, make them promises they want to hear blah blah..

I think fsg will feel the full force of the fans angry wen Suarez is sold and ayre will not be able to bs the fans no more and fsg will be in serous trouble

why would they be in trouble with 40mil in the bank? the owners will not suffer if Suarez is sold at all.

He is the focal point of a young, improving team which SHOULD *cough* be added to with even more quality in the summer. I can't see him 'doing a Torres' and completely flopping after a good season, and he's done well to avoid major injuries so I find it hard to believe he wouldn't be any less than world class next year too. Most of all, he seems genuinely happy to be playing for us- you never see him able around looking moody

The current side we have with the additions in the last transfer window is good enough to finish top 4 next season. Take Suarez out of that and we don't get above where we are now.

Without a clause in his contract the price would go above £60m. He is one of the top 5 strikers in the world. I would not sell at any price this summer.

It is amazing that we have set the bar as low as £40m. And at that price he cannot be replaced by any single player in the world in that price bracket. His wages will be a burden for any club so the only hope is that we can pinch a player and a whole lot of cash in exchange. And whilst people say we could get this guy and that guy don't forget that 2 players of that level will still cost £180k in wages per week. A lot more than Suarez is paid.

We are paying him enough and through everything the club and the fans have stuck by him. That counts for a lot.

I think he will stay another year and we will need to take it from there.
