The news jumps because he said MLS interests him once on the radio (RAC 1). In fact, his idea is to complete his Barcelona contract and even extend it for another year.
Suarez is the brother of Lionel Messi at Barcelona and has no intention to sell him. His idea is to stay and that of the board is to stay as long as he wants.
Suarez has once commented that he would like to know other markets and the MLS is one of those that he likes.
