Liverpool striker Luis Suarez is likely to be fit for the World Cup 2014, which will be a major boost for Uruguay. There were a lot of fears that he would miss the tournament after undergoing any operation a few weeks ago. However, he has made swift progress from the injury and is likely to be part of the tournament. Despite returning to full training, it is looking highly unlikely that Suarez will be part of the opening match against Costa Rica. He is likely to be rested for this encounter since Uruguay will want him to be available for the subsequent matches against Italy and England.

PSG striker Edinson Cavani recently said that the morale hit a low after they learnt that the 27-year-old had suffered an injury. Suarez is undoubtedly one of the top strikers in the world right now. He is the recipient of the PFA Player of the Year award after having scored 31 goals in the league last season. He was one of the top scorers in the top five European leagues. Even though Cavani is also an excellent striker, he does not get the number of goals that Suarez scores. Further, Suarez is also able to open tight defences with his dribbling skills.

“The knee is getting better. I feel very good. I have to go day by day but everything is on the right way. I wanted to thank you for all the support I received during this week and now my mind is focused on the World Cup,” said the striker in a personal message to the fans. Suarez has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid in the last few weeks. The Spanish champions are ready to pay around £ 75 million for the striker. For the moment, he is concentrating on the World Cup.
