Luis Suarez’s next club: Paddy slashes odds on move after flurry of bets

And the madcap Uruguayan goal machine is not going to be short of offers with Juventus leading the way in our markets. In fact, our traders have been forced to take a big bite out of the odds on him moving to Turin after multiple reports of progress in talks.

The Old Lady were as long as 9/1 to sign Suarez but are now odds-on favourites to sign the Barcelona hitman before the window closes next month.

Ajax had been the favourites to land Suarez, and they may have a better chance now Manchester United are about to hand them £40m for Donny van de Beek, but they’ve slipped to third in our markets. However, they too have had their odds chopped, coming in from 10/1 yesterday after a flurry of activity overnight.

Moneybags Paris St-Germain have leapfrogged the Dutch giants into second favs amid reports they have made contact with Suarez’s representatives. Leicester are in the running to offer him a return to England after his incredible spell with Liverpool between 2011-2014.

Suarez, now 33, may prefer to take the slightly-less strenuous option of Any MLS club which we think is his fifth-most likely destination at the moment. Inter Milan are next in the market ahead of Borussia Dortmund who might fancy Suarez as the perfect mentor for their wonderkid Erling Haaland.

Tottenham lead the pack of rank outsiders and have shorter odds than Any Chinese Super League club, Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and Everton if you fancy the unpredictable striker to pull off another surprise.
