English reports: Liverpool and Newcastle keen on Sporting star | OneFootball

The match between Sporting and Arsenal, in the Champions League quarter-finals, is generating great excitement in England, not only because of the importance of the tie, but also because of the head-to-head between Luis Suárez and Viktor Gyokeres. The duel between the two forwards has been highlighted as one of the main talking points of the game.

The British press, namely The Sun, has been drawing attention to the Colombian’s performances, underlining the impressive numbers he has posted this season. The striker’s displays have not gone unnoticed and have already attracted the attention of Premier League clubs.

Liverpool and Newcastle are closely monitoring the player’s progress, seeing him as an interesting profile to strengthen their attack. The Colombian is praised for his intensity when pressing and his clinical finishing. “He is known for his ability to link up play and is tireless in pressing. He is quick and knows how to finish with both feet,” the publication highlights.

The newspaper also says that, in Portugal, some believe Sporting look more balanced as a team with Suárez leading the line, even without Gyokeres’ goals. The striker could therefore once again consider a move to England, after an unsuccessful spell at Watford early in his career, where he had few opportunities to establish himself. The forward previewed the clash.

This season, wearing the Sporting shirt, Luis Suárez – valued at €28 million – has made 42 appearances: 25 in Liga Portugal Betclic, ten in the Champions League, five in the Portuguese Cup, one in the League Cup and another in the Cândido de Oliveira Super Cup. In the 3,403 minutes he has been on the pitch, the centre-forward has scored 33 goals and provided five assists.
