Liverpool are confident there is no concrete buyout clause in Luis Suarez's contract. Indeed, sources say Suarez's camp botched the option in the Uruguayan's deal.
Suarez, agent Pere Guardiola and his lawyer believe they have a legally binding clause. Liverpool do not and nor do the PFA or the Premier League.
The Daily Mail reports essentially what it says is this: if Liverpool do not qualify for the Champions League or if Liverpool receive a bid of more than £40m, the club will sit down 'in good faith' and discuss it.
It is not even remotely close to a trigger clause that would enable the Uruguayan to leave.
One insider said the Suarez camp "dropped the ball when it came to the phrasing of that sentence in the contract. It is so heavily caveated it amounts to nothing. Legally it is worthless."
