Hot Suarez extends Liverpool contract

Only four months after publicly pleading to leave the club in the hope of joining Premier League rivals Arsenal,Luis Suarez today committed his future to Liverpool Football Club by signing a new long-term contract at Melwood. Read more after the cut.....


The 26-year-old complained in August that Liverpool had broken an agreement allowing him to leave after the club failed to qualify for the Champions League. His complaint came shortly after Liverpool had rejected a transfer bid from Arsenal for the striker.

Liverpool stood firm however and Suarez began a dramatic period of rehabilitation.

The Uruguay forward is the top scorer in the Premier League this season with 17 league goals in 11 starts, including a quadruple against Norwich and a hat trick against West Brom.

Tipped to shine at the World Cup next year, his form has helped Liverpool climb to second in the division, two points behind Arsenal.

“We have some great players and the team is growing and improving all the time,” Suarez said. “I believe I can achieve the ambitions of winning trophies and playing at the very highest level with Liverpool. My aim is to help get us there as quickly as possible.”
