Barcelona striker Luis Suarez’s move is considered impossible by Juventus.
Juventus have been longing to land a replacement for Gonzalo Higuain for quite some time now and they have been heavily linked to some of Europe’s ageing forwards who are still at the top of their game. Barcelona’s Luis Suarez is one of the options alongside Arkadiusz Milik, Edin Dzeko and Chelsea’s Olivier Giroud.

The Italian Champions have already landed Arthur Melo from Barcelona a couple of months ago and now they are looking for a proper replacement for Higuain. However, Juventus Sporting Director, Fabio Patrici has reportedly stated that a move for the former Liverpool centre forward to Turin will be impossible.
Patrici seems content on the fact that Suarez will not be arriving at the Italian club despite being heavily linked to them. Many reports have also suggested that Ronald Koeman has personally informed the Uruguayan that he will not be a part of the former Southampton manager’s plans, at the Nou Camp. The Uruguayan who is nicknamed ‘El Pistolero’ by fans has, on the other hand, clearly stated that he expects to see out his contract and receive full payment. before departing.
The Bianconeri will most likely end up with Roma’s Dzeko or Milik as even Giroud is highly unlikely to leave London for a move to Turin. The sporting director has repeatedly stated that a move for the Uruguayan international will not be possible in conversation with several journalists last week.
Meanwhile, the newly appointed Dutch coach seems to have no intention of keeping the striker in his plans for the future despite Lionel Messi’s desire of having his best friend around for another season. Koeman believes that his decision was made based on Suarez’s performances in the last two season as the striker has been a shadow of his former self. Despite the slight dip in form, the former Ajax man is arguably the best centre forward of the recent generation and any team will profit on the pitch with his addition.
Should Suarez continue at the Nou Camp?
