Reports from England claim that Barcelona striker Luis Suarez could make a shocking Premier League return this summer
Barcelona have been put on high alert regarding the future of striker Luis Suarez. Reports from England claim that the star striker is considering making a shock return to the Premier League.
The Mirror claims that Suarez is considering joining Manchester City after the arrival of Pep Guardiola. In addition to the Barcelona star, Guardiola is also rumored to fancy bringing Toni Kroos in from Real Madrid.
I’m going to suggest that we take this rumor with a giant grain of salt. Suarez finds himself in an excellent position currently with Barcelona and it’s hard to imagine him giving that up. However, stranger things have happened in the summer transfer window. I suppose we can’t dismiss this out of hand.
If any Premier League club had the audacity to bring Suarez back to England, it would certainly be Manchester City. England’s nouveau-riche aren’t afraid to splash a fortune in the transfer market and also wouldn’t worry about Suarez’s off the field baggage.
Even so, this one seems a lot like paper talk. Suarez currently has an opportunity to play with arguably the greatest attackers in the world. It’s not as if City are devoid of star power up front, but Lionel Messi and Neymar are definitely superior to the likes of Sergio Aguero and Kevin de Bruyne.
The arrival of Pep Guardiola at Manchester City will allow the Premier League giants to attract high-end talent that were unreachable under Manuel Pellegrini. That doesn’t mean that Luis Suarez is coming back to England though. Expect the enigmatic, but prolific front man to stay with Barcelona until the La Liga giants decide to search for superior options.
