Barcelona finance chief Faus insists they can afford Liverpool striker Luis Suarez

Barcelona finance chief Javier Faus insists they have the spending power to sign Liverpool striker Luis Suarez.

Despite being sent home from the World Cup in disgrace, Suarez has been touted as the club's prime transfer target this summer and could cost up to £85 million.

"In the last three years Barca have been earning money and reducing their debt at a large rate and are stronger financially," he said.

"We can realise all the sporting challenges and signings our coaches and sporting director want."
