Reports from Uruguay that Luis Suarez says he wants to stay at Liverpool

The journalist described as the man who knows Luis Suarez best, Martin Charquero, claims that the striker will now stay at Liverpool.

Is one of the big transfer sagas of the summer over? After a torrid few weeks which involved declarations by Luis Suarez that he wanted out of Anfield, and claims by Brendan Rodgers and John W Henry that he was going nowhere, it seems the latter might turn to to be true after all. A Uruguayan journalist called Martin Charquero, who Liverpool based journo Tony Barrett has called the man who knows the striker best, claimed overnight that the forward has been convinced by the fans to stay with the Reds.

ATENCIÓN. Luis Suárez me confirma que no se ira de Liverpool. El apoyo de los hinchas en las últimas semanas influyeron en la decision. — Martin Charquero (@MartinCharquero) August 13, 2013

Translation: "Luis Suarez confirms to me that he will not leave Liverpool. The support of the fans in recent weeks influenced his decision." And not only that, Charquero goes on to say that Suarez may even sign an extension to his current deal.

Luis Suárez ve como probable una renovación (extension) del contrato que lo une a Liverpool. — Martin Charquero (@MartinCharquero) August 13, 2013

Translation: "Suarez sees it as likely that he'll sign a renewal (extension) to the contract that binds him to Liverpool." If true this is massive news for Liverpool and a hammer blow to Arsenal, who still harboured hopes of adding the 26-year-old to their squad.
