Liverpool signs Luis Suarez for £23million

Luis Suarez Liverpool Football Club announced on Friday afternoon that they had agreed a fee of up to 26.5million Euros with Ajax for the transfer of Luis Suarez, subject to the completion of a medical.

The Club have now been given permission by Ajax to discuss personal terms with the player and his representatives.

It has been speculated that Fernando Torres' rejected transfer request in the wake of Chelsea's £35million initial attempt to sign the Spaniard could have deterred Suarez from moving to Anfield.

But, in an interview prior to travelling to England on Saturday, the 24-year-old remained keen to sign for underachieving Liverpool and continued to rank the 18-time champions of England as a top-four club.

It remains to be seen whether Suarez partners Torres in attack, as Liverpool had planned, against Stoke at Anfield on Wednesday.

Torres is involved in an ugly standoff with his club after submitting a written transfer request late on Friday night, which overshadowed the agreed deal for Suarez.

I was glad to hear that he still wanted to come to us especially after the Torres transfer request. I was getting a bit worried in case he dropped out on us, but it seems he's on merseyside getting a medical for the reds. Cannot wait to see him in a red shirt. I hope he does well and fits in quickly.

Hi Sam,

All LFC need now are players who have the desire to play for the Reds.
