Yahoo News Luis Suarez representatives meet Barcelona to resolve transfer stalemate after club veto Atletico move
Representatives of Luis Suarez met with Barcelona officials on Tuesday evening in an attempt to find a solution after the club vetoed a transfer to Atletico Madrid.
Suarez had agreed to rescind his contract with Barca and was all set to join Atletico, but saw the move called off by the Catalan club as they were unwilling to strengthen a direct rival.
Standard Sport understands the Uruguayan was left furious by Barca's change of posture and instructed his agents to meet club directors on Tuesday in order to seek a solution.
According to reports in Catalonia, Barca would not be prepared to pay the settlement they had agreed with the striker for him to sign for Atletico, while they would also demand a fee.
Atletico had thought a deal was wrapped up, but the Rojiblancos are not prepared to meet the new conditions and are considering a move for Suarez's out-of-contract Uruguay team-mate Edinson Cavani instead.
Suarez and his representatives had threatened to call a press conference to explain his situation, but the striker now hopes his exit and transfer will be resolved after Tuesday's talks with the club.
