With the summer transfer window in full swing, there is plenty of gossip doing the rounds in the newspapers so we’ll keep you up-to-date with the latest transfer rumours. Today, more on the future of Luis Suarez.

Luis Suarez’ agent is ready to present legal documents to Liverpool to try and prove they have a case in their dispute over the strikers release clause with fresh talks pencilled in for Friday, according to the Mirror.

The Uruguayan is at odds with Liverpool over a supposed clause in the players contract that Suarez claims entitles him to leave if any club in the Champions League tables an offer in excess of £40m. The Reds are adamant this is not the case and have rejected a £40,000,001 offer from Arsenal with owner John W Henry saying last week selling to the Gunners would be ‘ludicrous’.

Boss Brendan Rodgers has forced Suarez to train alone and has demanded an apology before he’ll be welcomed back into the squad but the striker is refusing to do so as he feels betrayed by his manager and the club for what he believes is a breach of contract.

The Mirror claim the striker is determined to force a move away from Anfield this summer and Arsenal are expected to go back in with an improved third offer this week. Should that move fail to persuade Liverpool into selling, the newspaper suggests that Suarez’s agent will try and arrange talks with the Merseysiders on Friday where he’ll present legal documents that they feel proves they have a case in their contract clause wrangle.

The report also claims that Suarez’s camp are sounding out interest from abroad after Liverpool made it perfectly clear they do not want to sell to Arsenal, so they think a move overseas will be easier to engineer.

An obvious potential destination is Real Madrid but the Spaniard’s appear focussed on their pursuit of Garth Bale and there has been no talk of interest from elsewhere, so Arsenal remain the only viable option at present.

It will be interesting to see how this saga plays out but with less than three weeks left of the summer transfer window, Suarez is running out of time to force a move away from Anfield.
