Wenger: “No Chance Of Signing Luis Suarez”

By on August 22, 2013

After weeks of speculation and failed bids, Arsene Wenger has finally admitted defeat in his chase for Liverpool’s Luis Suarez.

Our interest in the controversial Uruguayan has been widely publicised this summer with Liverpool publicly slamming us for tabling a bid of £40,000,001 after we were led to believe that any offer over £40m would trigger a buy-out clause in the strikers contract.

Suarez has made no secret of his desire to leave Anfield in search of Champions League football – something we can almost certainly offer him next season after last nights 3-0 away win over Fenerbache – but Brendan Rodgers remained adamant the striker was going nowhere this summer.

Things have gone quiet on Suarez front in recent days and some Arsenal fans held faint hope that we were gearing up for one last move, but speaking last night the boss confirmed the deal is dead, saying we have no chance of signing Suarez.

He told the clubs official website:

on if the Luis Suarez transfer is dead…

Yes. Absolutely no chance of that.

So our search for a world class striker continues and interesting reports this morning are linking us with a move for Karim Benzema. Not sure that pursuit will be any more successful than the Suarez one, but we’ll wait and see….
