adminThe Uruguay international is seeking a summer exit from Anfield after growing disillusioned with his treatment in England — on the back of a string of controversies.
The Reds insist they have no intention of sanctioning a sale, but their hand may be forced if a tempting offer is lodged and Suarez pushes for a move.
He is reluctant to speculate on where he sees himself playing in 2013/14, but concedes that it would be difficult to turn down the chance to turn out alongside Cristiano Ronaldo at Santiago Bernabeu.
Speaking on Uruguayan television, Suarez said: “Of course I would like to play with Cristiano Ronaldo — he’s a great player. You never know, but it’s complicated.”
Suarez has also been reflecting on his now infamous tussle with Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.
He concedes that he “completely lost it” but still feels that the incident was blown out of proportion.
He added: “The incident with Ivanovic — I know I made a mistake, it was me, my fault, and he did not do anything to me.
“I was angry because I had given away a penalty for handball. I was the cause of the penalty against my team — I saw red and completely lost it. I can’t really explain it.
“But still people can be very cruel, and the reaction was amazing.”
Meanwhile, Florentino Perez admits Real Madrid would have no qualms paying big money for Tottenham Hotspur’s Gareth Bale, but he says they need to wait for their new coach to be appointed before making any moves.
Perez has not hidden his admiration for Bale and he insists that the club would have no problem paying what is needed, with claims that Spurs would demand a world record £85 million for the Welshman.
But Perez — who began the “Galactico” way of thinking at the club — insists that big money buys, such as Bale, pay for themselves.
“Madrid always want the best. Tottenham is a very amicable club, but first we must see who our new coach will be and after that we will begin to arrange our new squad,” he told Marca.
“I think the same as if we were to have a tennis team and Rafael Nadal asked me for these millions. For players like this — the investment they generate you and the revenue they produce, you can give everything to try and get them.
“I demonstrated in 2000 that with players like this you can change the dynamic, going from losing to winning.
“Then you have to look carefully at the player involved. We are not going to talk too much about Bale because he plays at a very amicable club and they will be annoyed by too much talk about him.
I know their chairman well and he doesn’t like things like that. — SkySports.
