No way out for Luis Suarez as Liverpool owner John W Henry rules out Arsenal move
JOHN W HENRY has warned Luis Suarez he will not be sold to any club at any price in the transfer window and denounced the notion of the striker leaving Liverpool to join Arsenal as “ludicrous”.
Liverpool’s principal owner has told Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis he will not countenance strengthening a rival for a Champions League place.
Suarez will continue to train on his own until he apologises for the lack of respect he has shown to Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers, his team-mates and fans.
Henry said: “We are not going to sell Luis.
“I’m unequivocal that we won’t sell to Arsenal, whatever the bid is. We’re not in Europe this year and have not been in the Champions League for a while.
“Obviously to sell to a rival for those positions, or one of them, would be ludicrous. He won’t be sold even if a foreign club comes in because we do not have time to sign a suitable replacement.”
