Litmanen keen to see Liverpool striker Suarez in Champions League

Former Liverpool star Jari Litmanen is keen to see Luis Suarez in the Champions League next season.

The Reds secured their return to Europe's premier competition on Sunday with their 3-2 victory at Norwich City.

Litmanen told Liverpoolfc.com: "He is a goalscoring machine and very-well known, not only now here in England but in the whole world.

"Personally, as a fan, I want all of the top players playing at the highest level - and Suarez is one of the most dangerous strikers in the world.

"He is a player who can create something from nothing and he is really, really important for Liverpool."

Litmanen was back at Anfield for Monday's 'Celebration of the 96' charity game in which a team of local Liverpool legends took on a squad of the Reds' former international stars.
