During an interview with the French newspaper “France Football”, Suarez talked about the issue of his departure from the “Blaugrana” last summer, after spending six seasons with the Catalan club, saying: “What really bothered me is that they told me that I was old enough, and that I could no longer play on The highest level and with a great team. “
He added, “Barcelona fired me, and told me that they would not rely on me. They said they would not count on me anyway. They simply told me that they did not want me in the team, I deserved some respect from them.”
He continued, saying: “If I hadn’t done anything in Barcelona in three or four years I would have understood their position, but I used to score more than 20 goals every season. My numbers were always good behind Messi only, today it has become clear that it is not easy to play in Barcelona. Barcelona concluded many deals that did not fulfill the expectations expected of them, and I maintained my level in Barcelona for six years, and achieved what the club expected from me, “according to the Spanish newspaper” AS “.
Suarez commented on Ronald Koeman’s call in which he told him to look for another club and move him to Atlético de Madrid, saying: “It was a decision that I could not avoid, a decision that I could not do anything towards. My merit, which is why I was attracted by the idea of playing for Atletico Madrid, as it is an ambitious club.
Regarding his adaptation to the way Atlético Madrid plays, Suárez explained: “I welcomed this change after all that I lived in Barcelona. The most difficult thing I faced about it was that my family had been living in Barcelona for six years. Friends and life in Barcelona, this was definitely the most difficult, especially in the midst of this pandemic, as it made it more difficult to adapt in Madrid. “
