Ajax face fight to keep Suarez


URUGUAY striker Diego Forlan this week expressed his hope that compatriot Luis Suarez would stay at Ajax, at least until the end of the season. He said: “I can only advise him to stay at Ajax until the end of this term. Luis is still young and very eager to learn. He should be patient and stay a bit longer.”
However, regardless of Forlan’s pleas, the decision, ultimately, may not rest on the players’ shoulders. Sadly, the Dutch league isn’t the force it once was, and with finances at an all-time low, even the biggest clubs are resigned to losing their best players.
Having sold both Klaas Jan Huntelaar and Thomas Vermaelen in the past year, Ajax fans would find the sale of their talisman hard to take. Barcelona are said to be monitoring the situation closely though, and if they were to come in with a big offer in January, the board would find it almost impossible to resist.
