Atleico Madrid forward Luis Suarez is being linked with a possible return to England club Liverpool as reports say the Uruguayan could return this summer, Daily Mail reports.

The striker has inspired Diego Simeone’s side to the top of La Liga with 19 goals this season, but rumours have it that he is having a difficult relationship with the manager.

It was gathered that Suarez included a clause in the contract to see him leave in the summer of 2021 without any penalty.

He is reportedly become ‘physically drained’ with Simeone’s style of football, which involves a lot of pressing and high energy.

As a result, Suarez could entertain transfer talks with Liverpool and Inter Miami this summer, the report adds.

Recall that Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez replicated his old tricks during their 1-0 loss to Premier League club Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday night, February 23.

Olivier Giroud's lone goal proved vital on as a clinical Chelsea side edged Atletico Madrid in the first leg of their last 16 tie played at National Arena in Bucharest, Romania.

The match was Thomas Tuchel's biggest European test since his arrival as Blues boss back in January when he replaced Frank Lampard who was recently sacked.

Replay shows that the former Barcelona striker had cheekily pinched the Chelsea defender around his thigh.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that Catalan club Barcelona are desperate in signing Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland as soon as the summer transfer window opens.

It was gathered that the Spanish giants have prioritised signing the Norwegian over ensuring club captain Lionel Messi signs a new contract.

The six-time Ballon d’Or winner has been heavily linked with a move away from the club amid interests from Ligue 1 side PSG as well as Premier League club Manchester United.

The striker’s agent and father are believed to be in negotiations with the club as they visited the team’s training ground for discussion last week.
