Barcelona has made Luis Suarez the black sheep

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Barcelona is accused of making Luis Suarez the black sheep. The Blaugrana is considered to have shifted all the blame on the attacker.

As it’s known, Suarez’s fate is hanging by a thread. He is no longer needed by Barcelona, who started a new project with Ronald Koeman, and is up for sale.

But a series of bad things has happened to the player from Uruguay. He failed to join Juventus, even though he had flown to Italy to undergo tests to obtain a passport.

The complicated process to obtain Suarez has made the Bianconeri lose interest, even though from the start the Italian League champion only made him the second option after Edin Dzeko. In the process, Juventus turned their interest to Alvaro Morata and had made his arrival official.

From Juventus, Luis Suarez changed his goal to Atletico Madrid. But reportedly Barcelona President, Josep Maria Bartomeu has blocked the transfer by asking for a transfer fee.

This is different from the previous agreement, in which Barcelona was ready to terminate the contract so that Suarez could leave for free. As a result, Suarez also felt cheated.

Former coach of Suarez at Atletico Nacional, Martin Lasarte, considered that from the start Barcelona only wanted to make the player become the black sheep. The man who gave Suarez’s professional debut accused the management of wanting to cover their bad intentions.

“Is Barcelona able to sign a better player than Luis Suarez today? I think they wanted to make Luis Suarez pay for mismanagement throughout the year,” he said as quoted by Marca.

“It seems all the responsibility for everything bad happening at Barcelona falls on Luis. Now they forget that before there was a change of coach when the team was leading the table and that they don’t know what they are doing,” he added.

Barcelona dismissed Ernesto Valverde in January and appointed Quique Setien as a replacement. In fact Setien also failed to lift the team’s performance, instead making Barcelona lose the top of the Spanish League standings and be overtaken by Real Madrid who won. Barcelona also ran aground painfully in the Champions League after losing 2-8 to Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals.
