Liverpool forward Luis Suarez has maintained that he will not leave the Merseyside club in the summer, and is delighted to have made the FA Cup final.
The Uruguay international has been the subject of media criticism due to being banned for eight games for racist remarks he made to Manchester United defender Patrice Evra, and has been linked with an Anfield exit.
However, the South American has confirmed that he has no plans to leave Kenny Dalglish’s men.
“Yes, yes I will continue at Liverpool,” he told The Telegraph.
“It is obvious I will continue. I have four years left on my contract and I am very happy and content to be here and I hope good things continue.
“I am over that (the eight-match ban). Obviously the important thing was the support from all the people and there is no need to talk about that as it is already in the past.
“Obviously one has to be used to all this. A lot of things happen in football. It’s difficult and it’s complicated but you have to deal with it,” he continued.
Suarez scored the Reds’ equaliser against Everton in the FA Cup semi-final on Saturday, and was happy to win the match in front of his family.
“My joy was for my wife and my daughter and my sister and niece who came from Uruguay and my father-in-law who came from Barcelona.
“They made a huge effort to be here so my joy was for all the sacrifices they make for me not to mention of course the sacrifices by all the people from Liverpool and all the support they’ve given us despite not having good moments in recent times,” he concluded.
