REAL MADRID are preparing a January bid for Liverpool star Luis Suarez - after reports in Spain claim the Spanish giants have been offered the Uruguayan's services.

Real wanted Suarez this summer but could not raise enough funds to afford the striker after splashing out a world record £85million on securing Gareth Bale from Tottenham.

Carlo Ancelotti wanted to bring Suarez to Madrid but could not shift Angel Di Maria after allowing Mesut Ozil to join Arsenal for £42m.

But Di Maria could still leave in the January transfer window, which would pave the way for renewed interest in Liverpool's prize asset.

Spanish sports paper Marca claim Liverpool have again offered Suarez to Real Madrid

Spanish sports paper Marca - who were vocal in their coverage of Bale's protracted switch to the Bernabeu - claim the Reds have again offered Suarez to Real.

His agent Pere Guardiola - brother of Bayern Munich manager Pep - even reached an agreement with the Madrid hierarchy in the summer.

£40m seems short of the figure Liverpool would want to do business, despite the player's intention to play for the La Liga outfit.
