Liverpool
have made a €15m bid for Ajax
striker Luis Suarez, but the Dutch side are holding out for closer
to €25m, according to media reports.
Italian publication Tuttomercato comments that the English
Premier League want to pair the Uruguayan with Fernando Torres at
Anfield, and have made initial enquires to bring Suarez to the club
in the January transfer window.
Ajax are not currently in a position where they can reject a
substantial offer for their star asset, but will attempt to hold
out for a bigger bid from the Reds.
The likes of Juventus, Real Madrid and Tottenham have been linked
with Suarez in the past, but Liverpool have emerged as one of the
main contenders for the player’s signature.
The 23-year-old struck 49 goals in an incredible season last year,
and has managed 11 goals in 22 matches for the Amsterdam club this
season.
