Suarez to Barcelona Deal finalised at £70m

The Catalan giants will imminently announce the capture of the Uruguay star after agreeing to meet the release clause inserted in the striker’s new Liverpool contract last December
Luis Suarez is on the brink of officially completing his sensational transfer from Liverpool to Barcelona after the terms of a deal worth just over £70 million were agreed on Wednesday night, Goal understands.
The agreement comes after a week of negotiations between the clubs, with an announcement expected in the coming days – perhaps even within 24 hours.
It is believed that Suarez will undergo initial medical examinations from Barca doctors in his native Uruguay, where he has been staying following his country’s elimination from the World Cup.
Officials from the Catalan club have been negotiating with their counterparts from Merseyside in the last week over the structure of payments in the deal, with Liverpool pushing for a higher initial sum.
An agreement has now been reached and the final formalities will be completed before Suarez is announced as Barcelona’s marquee signing of the summer.
Barca will partly fund the signing of the 27-year-old by selling Alexis Sanchez to Arsenal.
As revealed by Goal, the Chile World Cup star will move to Emirates Stadium after Arsenal agreed a package worth €40m (£31.8m) with the Spanish club.
Liverpool will now look to strengthen their squad using some of the money from the Suarez deal. The Merseysiders are on the verge of completing a triple swoop for Benfica winger Lazar Markovic, Lille striker Divock Origi and Southampton defender Dejan Lovren
