Suarez commits to Kop

Luiz Suarez has ended speculation regarding his future by signing a new long-term contract with Liverpool.

Striker Suarez had been linked with a move to Juventus, with the Italian giants reportedly planning a double swoop on the Barclays Premier League by also poaching Arsenal's Robin van Persie. But despite occasionally troubled times on Merseyside, the Uruguay international has given new manager Brendan Rodgers a boost ahead of the new season by committing himself to the Reds. Suarez, back in training at Melwood following his recent involvement in Uruguay's failed bid for Olympic gold, has confirmed he could not be more content with life on Merseyside. "To sign a new contract with Liverpool is unbelievable for me because I am so happy here at both the club and also in the city," Suarez told Liverpoolfc.com. "That is important for me and I am very happy with my new contract."
