Furthermore, he is said to be upset at receiving just a 60-second telephone call from Koeman with radio silence from club president Josep Maria Bartomeu on the matter.

Suarez has reportedly vowed not to make life difficult for Barcelona if he is to leave.

Yet he has already voiced his anger at how the club is dealing with his future.

Suarez told last week: "There is talk of some names that the president gave, of changes that can be made, but nobody told me that they want to do without me.

"If this is the desire of the club, it would be good if the person in charge who chooses speaks directly to me.

That would mean paying off the final year of his deal, thought to be worth a considerable £405,000-a-week.

Suarez has been a consistent goalscoring force since signing from Liverpool in 2014, netting almost 200 times for Barcelona.
