Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers insists that star striker Luis Suarez is "not for sale" this summer.

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is adamant that striker Luis Suarez will not be leaving the club this summer.

Suarez had an outstanding campaign for the Reds scoring 30 goals in 44 games in all competitions before his season was ended prematurely as he was suspended due to him biting Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.

Rodgers told reporters: "Listen, every player has their price but there's certainly no pressure for the club to sell him. We're trying to build that bit of quality so he's not for sale.

"I don't have any doubts there will be interest in him this summer, because he's up there.

"People will want to take him, but I think we all recognise how integral he is. The owners have been absolutely unequivocal in their resolve in terms of wanting to keep him."

Liverpool finished the season in seventh place in the Premier League in Brendan Rodgers's first campaign as manager.
