The details of Luis Suarez’s transfer from Liverpool to Barcelona have been leaked online.
The deal, worth £65 million, took place in July 2014 after the Uruguayan won the European Golden Shoe, having netted 31 league goals for Liverpool in the 2013/2014 season.
According to documents leaked online by Football Leaks, the Catalan club still owe Liverpool the final instalment of the transfer payment.
The European and domestic champions have been paying £13 million pounds every six months, which is a common practice in transfer deals in football.
The documents also show that the Anfield side did not ask for any performance-based add-ons, which is a common practice in the transfer of high-calibre players such as the 29-year-old.
This is believed to have been caused by the furore generated when Suarez bit Italian defender, Giorgio Chiellini at the 2014 World Cup, which earned him a four-month ban.
The Merseysiders were said to have been relieved to let him go after the incident, following a series of incidents that also pitched him against the club.
Football Leaks have on previous occasions leaked transfer documents of many players in the Spanish league, many of whom are Real Madrid stars.
