Valverde Denied Denis Suarez Exit to Arsenal

DBasia.news – Arsenal are targeting Barcelona attacking midfielder, Denis Suarez. Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde has the answer for the transfer speculation.

Barcelona President Josep Maria Bartomeu has met Suarez to talk about his future. Bartomeu agreed to let Suarez leaves in the January transfer market.

The negotiation has been ongoing with Arsenal. El Barca demand at least £15M for the 25-year-old player. Meanwhile, The Gunners submit the offer for a half-season loan with the buyout option.

However, Valverde stated that they still need Suarez. Moreover, Barcelona would face a tight schedule.

“Denis can play for us in any match and he is always available. The reality is he was with our squad when we went to Getafe on Sunday,” Valverde told Dario Sport.

“And he is always competing to be in the squad, so yes he does have a future,” the Spaniard coach continued.

“This is a period of the season when fixtures come thick and fast and we will need to make rotations, I am aware of this and so are the players,” the coach said.

Denis Suarez faced a difficulty to qualify for the main squad of Barcelona. Moreover, the arrival of Arturo Vidal and Arthur makes it difficult for him. This season, the former Manchester City squad just played in 6 matches.

“Every game now we believe there will be a few changes, between league fixtures and those in the Copa all players available have a chance.”

Currently, Arsenal need the new midfielder after Aaron Ramsey would join Juventus. Barcelona might agree if the offer is interesting.
