First thing first, Lugano did not exactly say that his compatriot and Liverpool star Luis Suarez is better than Cavani. What he really said is that Luis is the second best player in the world.
Diego Lugano, Uruguay’s captain firmly believes that Suarez is only second to Lionel Messi in the world of football.
Different sets of fans may have different arguments and choices on this subject but one thing is for sure. Lugano rates Suarez higher than he rates his other team mate and world class striker Cavani.
Cavani was the best striker in Serie A last season and left Italian side Napoli to join French giants PSG this summer in a deal worth £55m.
Suarez on the other hand had a fantastic season for Liverpool. However, unlike Cavani, Suarez has always been brilliant for Uruguay as well.
At the age of 26, he is the all-time top scorer for the national side after overtaking legendary Diego Forlan.
Suarez might be a trouble maker but on the field of play he guarantees brilliant performances. Who can be a better judge than his team’s very own captain Lugano.
Therefore, for those who claim that Suarez is not even worth 50m, Diego’s statement has given the perfect answer.
If Cavani was sold for such a hefty sum then surely Liverpool were right to hold on to him and were looking for a price in excess of 50m
Whether it is January or next summer, the clubs chasing Luis Suarez will have to splash cash keeping in mind the mentioned amount to have any chance of signing the prolific Uruguayan.

Back to this old chestnut. Cavani’s move to PSG is no longer the benchmark, its Bale’s to Madrid! If someone wants Suarez, then lets start the offers at c€90m….
Spot on!
Even Zinadine Zidane said no football player is worth 86 million. Not even Bale! He will certainly be a 86 million disappointment if he fails. As a result, Los Blancos will be sniffing around LFC for Suarez come January. Earth to Real, Suarez will cost more than Bales 86 million.
One last thing, we at LFC don’t accept payment plans like the Spuds do!
Dead right 😉
“Suarez might be a trouble maker but on the field of play he guarantees brilliant performances” as long as his troublemaking doesn’t keep him out of the pitch like he is now for club. A great stiker remains useless as long as he’s banned and that must also be considered in the price.
Luis Suarez is a brilliant striker, one of the best in the world but you can’t rely on him in the long run due to his disciplinary problems. Someone should SERIOUSLY take care of that side of an otherwise superb player.
Suarez is undoubtedly d best player in liverpool and therefor i believe if any club(s) want our best player, they should b prepare to pay d best money. D Cavanis and d Bales already set d table for negotiation, and any talk outside dis negotiating circle is a waste of time.
Great player no doubt.
Suarez is better than Bale, no doubt. Liverpool should expect at least the same amount of money for him, by January Bale will be paid for, so real will be in a position to bid for Suarez, would’nt blame him if he went, but Real have Bale before him, so do they really want him. Arsenal, if they want him would have to smash their transfer record again.
Only blind people make rating below 40 milion pound for Luis Suarez.I cannot understand why Luis Suarez stiil want to join the clubs who never respect his value of talent?Arsenal only want to pay only 42 milion pound.
To be fair and honest,Suarez is d bset player in England last season but 4 certain distortions.but there are diff in style of play with him n Bale.4 age,Bale should cost more.But anything short of 65-70m in pounds is an insult 2 d player himself.Does he understand that despite his urge n desire 2 play in Europe?
I said it some times ago, u can compare lius suarez wf any players in d world. He is perfect,brillant,convasant,smart and know where xactly goal can come 4rm. He worth more than 7o mill pound. And also, he was d LFC and premiership best player last year. If nt bcos of his attitudes whc cours him d best player of last year. Buh am very sure that he has learned a lesson…Any club who wantd 2 sign him must come wf good money that can’t b regestd! YNWA
Suarez is much better than bale So he should be worth more then bale at list 90million pounds
YNWA!
