Suarez
Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge has accused Luis Suarez of a “massive lack of loyalty” by his desire to leave the club.
Suarez is expected to hand in a formal
transfer request to Liverpool, according to reports in his home country
Uruguay, after Arsenal had a bid of £40million plus £1 for the striker
rejected.
Aldridge, who scored 63 goals in 104
games for Liverpool, said Suarez owed a debt of gratitude to the club
for sticking by him after his racism and biting controversies.
He told BBC Radio 5 Live: “There’s a massive lack of loyalty there and especially the way Liverpool have stuck by Luis. Not everything’s all about money.
“It’s different with Luis Suarez because
of the positions he’s put Liverpool in over the last couple of years
and they’ve stuck by him.
“The fans have been loyal, the manager’s
been loyal, his comrades have been loyal, and the hierarchy have been
loyal to him. They’ve done everything in the powers possible to back him
up and he’s basically put a custard pie in everyone’s face.”
The Uruguay international is serving a
10-game ban for biting Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic and previously was
banned for eight matches for racially abusing Manchester United’s
Patrice Evra.
