Anderlecht’s Matias Suarez snubs offer from Russia

Herman van Holsbeeck, the chairman of Belgian side Anderlecht, has revealed that Matias Suarez refused to join an unnamed Russian side.

«We received a €12 million bid from a Russian club, that I don’t want to name. But Matias would have liked a move to a better European league,» the chairman said as quoted by AS.

Van Holsbeeck has admitted that the forward is likely to stay with Anderlecht until the end of the season. Then the club and the player will start searching for an option that will suit both parties.

This season Suarez has made 19 appearances for Anderlecht, scoring 8 goals.
