Certain members of FC Barcelona are now considering that a move of Suarez to one of their domestic foe might not be a very good idea.
After being deemed surplus to the club’s need, Suarez got offers from Juventus and Atletico Madrid. The 33 year old striker preferred a move to the Wanda Metropolitano. Although the deal might not go through as easily as it looks.
In spite of verbal agreement, no paper works has been signed yet as Suarez and FC Barcelona first need to come to an agreement, before the striker can move forward. In case this deal doesn’t go through, Edinson Cavani, is another alternative Madrid is looking forward to, as he became a free agent after leaving PSG.
