Luis Suarez signs new contract at LFC
The 26-year-old Uruguayan insists he is 'proud' and 'delighted' at having put pen to paper on the new extended deal and is focused on helping the club achieve its ambitions of sustainable success both domestically and in Europe.
The Reds' No.7 also paid tribute to the supporters, citing
the 'special relationship' he has with them as a key factor in reaffirming his
commitment to Liverpool.
Suarez joined the club in January 2011 and is widely
regarded as one of the most talented players in world football. This season
alone, Suarez has scored 17 goals in 11 Barclays Premier League starts.
"I am delighted to have agreed a new deal with
Liverpool and have my future secured for the long term," said Suarez.
"We have some great players and the team is growing and
improving all the time. I believe I can achieve the ambitions of winning
trophies and playing at the very highest level with Liverpool. My aim is to
help get us there as quickly as possible.
"Without doubt the backing I have received from the
Liverpool fans has influenced my decision. I am so proud to represent them and
go out to do my best for them every time I pull on the shirt.
"We have a special relationship; they have love for me
and in return I love them back. I will always do my best for them and hopefully
we can achieve success together."
Liverpool manager, Brendan Rodgers, said the news will give
everyone a lift: "This is fantastic news for everyone associated with the
club; the team, the owners and most importantly the supporters.
"Luis is a world-class talent and securing his services
is crucial for what we are trying to achieve here.
"What's most important and most exciting is that, at
just 26 years old, his best years are still ahead of him and we now know we'll
be seeing him reach that potential in a Liverpool shirt."
