Luis Suarez Confirms Liverpool Future Does Not Depend on Champions League Qualification Liverpool striker Luis Suarez says his future at Liverpool does not hinge on whether they qualify for the Champions League next season, Sky Sports report. Suarez was rumoured to be ready to leave Liverpool last summer in search of playing in Europes premier club competition, but has since signed a new contract at Anfield. Arsenal publicly chased the Uruguayan and made a bid but it now appears his future is secured until 2017. Speaking in an interview with FourFourTwo magazine, Suarez said: I signed my new contract because Im very happy here and I want to stay where Im enjoying football and life. Playing in the Champions League isnt dependent on that. Id actually prefer not to win this Golden Boot and for Liverpool to qualify for the Champions League this season. Any player would miss the Champions League. Weve not been good enough since Ive been here to qualify, but this could definitely be our year. It would be a frustration not to get fourth because weve done everything possible and given our maximum to qualify. Suarez has been in red hot form for Liverpool this season, making his way to the top of the Premier League scoring charts with 24 goals to date. The Uruguayan is also looking to take his form to the World Cup in Brazil this summer, where his side will encounter England in the group stage. This is my best season yet. I feel in a very good place, physically and mentally. Every day, I feel better in this club. I hope to continue down this path because we want Champions League football for Liverpool and, personally speaking, I want to continue that mentality throughout the World Cup with Uruguay. Im 27, at my peak, and I feel very happy within the club because Im part of the best football in the world - the Premier League. Im enjoying every game I play and my family life here, which is very important. I like winning. I hate losing - Ive done enough of that. Im one of the best players in the world, so having the opportunity to win everything - and losing only occasionally - is what drives me. Im ambitious. I want to win and wont stop until I score one, two or more goals.
