Luis Suárez has spoken about his move to Atlético Madrid, and why he was upset with FC Barcelona’s directors, in a new interview with France Football magazine.
“What really bothered me was that they told me that I was old and that I could no longer play at the top level, be part of a great team. That’s what displeased me,” the striker said, reflecting on his summer transfer.
Suárez is now tied with Lionel Messi for the top scorer award as Atlético lead La Liga.
“On the one hand, this change was welcome because, after everything I had experienced at Barça, and given the way it went, I wanted to change,” he said.
