Both Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus have been linked with Luis Suarez, with the Ligue 1 outfit making first contact with Barcelona. 

Luis Suarez was told by Ronald Koeman that he is no longer wanted at Camp Nou. A move to MLS was suggested but the 33-year-old wants to play in a different European league. 

PSG offer Ligue 1 experience while Juventus offer championships in Serie A. Both European giants are sizing up a move for the striker. 

AS reported that PSG have made contact with Suarez’s representatives and want to pair him with former Barcelona teammate Neymar. 

In Paris, he will compete with €60 million signing Mauro Icardi. PSG have the cash to pique his interest after the departures of Edinson Cavani, Thiago Silva and Jean-Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting. 

While PSG have an enticing project on offer, Juventus are also in the running for his signature. The Old Lady want Suarez as a replacement for Gonzalo Higuaín. The Argentine has been told by Pirlo to find employment elsewhere, a similar statement that the Uruguayan received in Catalonia.

Andrea Pirlo wants to pair the Barcelona man with Cristiano Ronaldo and Paulo Dybala as Juventus return to a 4-3-3 formation. Unlike the Ligue 1 club’s offer, Suarez will have greater chances of regular first-team minutes in Turin.
