Usually, we report about star players leaving the two biggest Argentine clubs, River Plate and Boca Juniors. But from time to time, they show ambition to bring in world-renowned players. Case in point, River want to recruit Uruguayan legend Luis Suarez to help them cope with the departure of Julian ‘The Spider’ Alvarez to Manchester City.According to Argentinean journalist Gustavo Yarroch, the red and whites from Buenos Aires are prepared to break the bank in order to bring Suarez back to South America.”Coach Marcelo Gallardo and the board are keen on Suarez. There were already talks with the Uruguayan. It is difficult but Suarez did not close the door on the idea.”Friday, 02.00: (2.25) Newell’S (3.10) San Lorenzo (3.50)Suarez is leaving Atletico after two seasons at Wanda Metropolitano and will be free to choose his next club. The former Ajax, Liverpool and Barcelona star is past his peak, but would still be an incredible addition for Los Millonarios. River fans are hopeful that Suarez has had enough of Europe and living across the globe from his homeland. Should he sign for River, the 35-year-old would be just a couple of hours away from his hometown of Salto, which is close to the Argentinean-Uruguayan border.Cuando Gallardo sonaba para la selección uruguaya, le preguntaron Luis Suárez qué opinaba de él: “Tiene un prestigio como jugador, y como entrenador lo ha demostrado aún más en estos últimos años que estuvo en River ganando casi todo. Sería un privilegio”. pic.twitter.com/HeBcnb4gxA— Esteban (@esteban_millo36) June 6, 2022 Suarez has got an important decision to make, but leaving Europe seems to be on top of his agenda. He says that he’s already been approached by clubs from Argentina, Brazil and Mexico.Julian Alvarez has years of football at the highest level ahead of him at Manchester City, but for a year or two, River would be delighted with the 132-caps Uruguay international as a replacement.
