Liverpool striker Luis Suarez is ready to push for a move away.
Suarez, the subject of a £40,000,001 offer from Arsenal, claims he is now ready to force the issue.
There had been reports that Suarez and his advisors were considering Premier League arbitration as a possible way to break the impasse over his situation.
Suarez told the Telegraph: "I have the club's word and we have the written contract and we are happy to take this to the Premier League for them to decide the case but I do not want it to come to that. We have the backing of the PFA."
