John Aldridge: 'Liverpool must keep Luis Suarez'

Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge has urged the club to do what they can to keep hold of Luis Suarez for next season.

The Uruguayan has been repeatedly linked with a move away from Anfield since the summer, with Real Madrid said to be keen on signing the 26-year-old forward.

However, Aldridge believes that the Merseysiders would be foolish to sell Suarez at the end of the current campaign.

"I don't think it would be a wise decision to let Suarez go," he told Goal.com.

"I know that it will also depend on the player as well, but I believe he must continue at Liverpool next season. He is one of the best strikers in the world - we must never forget that."

Suarez has scored eight goals in seven games for Liverpool so far this season.
