Luis Suarez's future could be closer than ever to a successful conclusion. Since Atletico confirmed his departure, a number of teams have stated their interest in his services.
Even Barcelona considered the possibility of bringing the striker back to the Camp Nou, an option which they eventually disregarded as they want Robert Lewandowski to lead the line.
One of the clubs who showed their interest, although in a very informal way, was River Plate. A transfer to the Argentine club seemed practically impossible, mainly due to the financial aspect.
Nevertheless, River have now become a real option. So much so that the signing of the striker could be made official this very Monday, if we follow Bruno Vain's information.
The journalist from 'Direct TV' announced that this information came to him from "the best possible source". If he ends up at El Monumental, he would be the natural replacement for Julian Alvarez, who left for Manchester City.
