Please release me, Suarez tells Liverpool

Liverpool's Uruguayan striker, Luis Suarez, has accused the club of not honoring a clause in his contract which would let him leave Anfield in comments published in Wednesday's Guardian.

Suarez repeated his desire to join a club in the Champions League and said Liverpool had gone back on an agreement written into his contract, signed last August, which obliges it to sell to any club offering more than 40 million pounds ($60.7 million).

"Last year I had the opportunity to move to a big European club and I stayed on the understanding that if we failed to qualify for the Champions League, the following season I'd be allowed to go," he told the paper.
