Rejection from River Plate: Where will Luis Suarez go?

Since 1 July, Luis Suarez has been without a club and the striker’s future is open. One thing is certain in the meantime: The Uruguayan will not be moving to River Plate.

“A month and a half ago I declared that I would not leave Europe,” the 35-year-old told Uruguayan sports newspaper “Ovacion”, “but River Plate insisted – so much so that I even considered it and there was a possibility. “

But on Thursday, one game ruined everything for River Plate. In the Copa Libertadores, the club was eliminated in the Argentine duel against Velez Sarsfield – decisive for Luis Suarez to cancel. “My arrival did not happen for sporting reasons, there was a preliminary agreement,” Suarez said. “I was very happy to have the opportunity to go to River and fight for the Copa Libertadores. It was a dream of mine to win a trophy in South America. Now that River is out, that opportunity no longer exists. “

Suarez “surprised” by Nacional

Suarez, who spent the past two seasons playing for Atletico Madrid, was disappointed with his hometown club Nacional. “If I thought about the possibility of River and got excited about it, the same would happen with Nacional, which was my home,” said the attacker. “I’m surprised that the Nacional officials didn’t even call me to find out about my situation.”

Currently Suarez is considering three offers from Europe. Speculation in the past has included a return to Ajax Amsterdam, while Atalanta Bergamo and various clubs in England are also said to be interested.

Suarez will not want to say goodbye to footballing insignificance. In November, he will take part in the World Cup in Qatar, and Uruguay have been drawn in a feasible group.
