Rodgers: Suarez a friend of Liverpool

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has revealed that Luis Suarez wished him and the rest of the squad all the best ahead of the new season.

The Uruguay international left Anfield this summer to sign for Barcelona, but after their first match of the season against Southampton, the Northern Irishman admitted that the goalscorer had sent messages to the team.

“He sent me a lovely text this morning wishing us all the best and telling his old team-mates to start strongly,” Rodgers told reporters.

“He’s a friend of Liverpool now.

“I sent one back. He’s a good boy but he’s gone. His heart is with Liverpool. He’ll always be Liverpool and it was a lovely touch.”
