I want to win titles with Sporting – Suarez
The Colombian said on the club's official website: “I have reached the highest point in my career. I really want to give a positive answer to the management that trusted me and the fans who received me so well. I want to show that I have what it takes to be here.
“I want to achieve the club's goals, which is the most important thing. I want to help the team by scoring goals, because that's why they signed me, and make assists, winning matches, winning titles …
“This is what I miss in my career: winning important trophies. I believe that at Sporting CP, we can win a lot and that, for me, would be the most beautiful thing that could happen.
“I manage to want to” devour the world “, and I believe that at your side, with your support, we have an excellent team that can achieve all its objectives.”
Suarez, which will carry the number 97 shirt, cost 22 million euros with an additional 5 million euros of potential additional modules.
Gyokerres prepared for the beginnings of Arsenal
Gyokerres joined Arsenal during his pre-season tour in Asia and should make his debut during the confrontation of the Northern London derby against Tottenham in Hong Kong on Thursday.
Although the boss of the Gunners, Mikel Arteta, is impatient to join the 27 -year -old as soon as possible, he admits that Gyoker has been involved in any training since the conclusion of the winning campaign of a Sporting title.
“Well, I think he hasn't had a single training session with the team since the last match with Sporting when they became champions,” said Arteta.
“So we're going to assess it tomorrow, he has done all the medical, everything is fine, but to update it with the right physical form levels, I think it's very important.
“So we are not going to stop it, we want it with us as quickly as possible, but we will have to assess, and the medical team will do.”
