Ah, it’s been a while since Luis Suarez caused any controversy, hasn’t it?
Well, we’ve got some news that’s going to rightly annoy a lot of Liverpool fans.
At the time Liverpool lost their Uruguayan former-talisman to the Catalan giants, it was widely reported that he was sold for £75 million – which matched the players buy-out clause as stated by Liverpool’s owners FSG and managing director Ian Ayre.
A leaked document today suggests, however, that he ended up going for £10 million fewer than his buy-out clause.

The document also breaks down the instalments and shows that Liverpool are still owed almost £13 million by Barcelona – to be paid on July 31 of this year.
Salt in the wounds for all the Kopites out there.
