Former Liverpool winger Steven McManaman believes there is little chance Luis Suarez will want a return to Anfield this summer.
Suarez is on the brink of winning the Spanish title in his debut season at Atletico Madrid with Diego Simeone's side two points clear of neighbours Real with one La Liga game remaining.
The Uruguayan had previously won four championships during six years at Barcelona - as well as the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super and four Copa del Reys - having lifted the League Cup during a three-and-a-half year stay at Liverpool.
With the Reds likely to bolster their forward line this summer, they have been linked in some quarters with a move for the 34-year-old.
But McManaman believes there are more pressing matters for Jurgen Klopp to address in his squad.
"The speculation regarding Liverpool’s interest in Luis Suarez doesn’t make much sense to me, despite the year that he’s had at Atletico Madrid where he’s done really well," said the BT Sport pundit.
"I personally don’t believe that he will want to come back to England at this point in his career.
"He’s had a number of years at Barcelona before Atletico Madrid, and he’s clearly loving his time in Spain where he’s adored, so I just can’t envision him returning to the Premier League now.
"Liverpool have got bigger problems elsewhere in the team and I don’t think the time is right for them to dismantle the front three of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane who have been so brilliant for the club over the last three years.

"Diogo Jota has been firing this year, so I believe having those four players to fill three different positions is great competition for Liverpool."
McManaman, speaking to Horseracing.net, added: "Jurgen Klopp might look to promote a younger player so they have five players for those three positions, so I don’t necessarily feel like Liverpool have to buy another forward.
"There are other areas of that team that can do with investment and it’s not like those three players are coming to the backend of their career or anything like that, it’s just that Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino haven’t been as prolific in front of goal this season."
