Liverpool must only sell Suarez for world record fee - Aldridge

Liverpool legend John Aldridge says Luis Suarez should only be sold for a world record fee.

Aldo wrote in the Liverpool Echo: "It's hard to believe that the highest bid Liverpool FC received for Luis Suarez back in the summer was £40million plus £1 from Arsenal.

"It's no wonder the owners scoffed at that valuation because Suarez is worth more than double that.

"Gareth Bale, who went from Tottenham to Real Madrid for £85million, is a quality player but he's no Suarez.

"The fact is that if the Uruguayan hadn't picked up that long ban last season he would have been Player of the Year and he would have won the Golden Boot.

"He's worth more than Bale and Saturday's phenomenal hat-trick against West Brom proved that."
