RED AGREEMENT: Suarez (pic) agrees to personal terms with Liverpool, passes medical exam

LONDON: Luis Suarez is set to complete his transfer to Liverpool today after passing his medical and agreeing terms with the Reds over the weekend.

The Reds announced that all necessary medical checks have been carried out on the Ajax striker, with a statement on their website confirming: "Luis Suarez has successfully passed his medical and personal terms with the player have been agreed. We expect to complete the remainder of the paperwork tomorrow."

The 24-year-old Uruguay international, who scored 111 goals in 159 games for Ajax, is expected to move to Anfield for a fee of £22.8 million and will be Kenny Dalglish's first signing since becoming manager for a second time.

Suarez, also known as El Pistolero or "The Gunfighter", believes his move to Anfield presents itself as a great opportunity to further his career.

"I am happy," Suarez told Ajax TV.

"It is important for anybody to go to such a big club. It is a great opportunity for me.

"Liverpool are a beautiful club. Everybody wants to play there. They always play Champions League or Europa League and belong to the top four clubs in the Premier League."
