Brendan Rodgers has warned Luis Suárez he will be making a mistake if he joins Arsenal because Liverpool are a far bigger club, The Telegraph reports.

The Liverpool manager said Suárez’s desire to move to Arsenal “does not add up”, even though the London club can offer Champions League football next season.

Suárez arrived in Bangkok with the Liverpool squad on Thursday night with his Anfield future still in doubt following his return to the team with a substitute appearance against Melbourne Victory in Australia on Wednesday.

Arsenal’s determination to sign the 26-year-old has been underlined by their club-record offer of £40,000,001 for the player, a sum for which they and Suárez’s advisers believe Liverpool are obliged to sell him.
