A club in Kosovo on Monday offered Luis Suarez 1,500 a month to boost their forward line while he serves his ban for biting. Kosovo is not covered by Suarez's world-wide suspension as it is not an official member of UEFA or FIFA so Suarez could theoretically play in its Super League. Kosovo side Hajvalia made the proposition in a letter to the Uruguayan's Premier League club Liverpool.
"It will be a huge step for us to be able to have such a renowned footballer in Kosovo," Hajvalia's president Xhavit Pacolli told AFP. "It will mean a lot not just to us, but to Kosovo as a whole," he said. Pacolli said his team could offer 1,500 euros ($2,048) per month, while Liverpool would be compensated with 30,000 euros for the four months Suarez would play in Kosovo.
"This amount might seem comical for him but this is the most we are able to offer," Pacolli said. He added that the offer "has a much bigger importance for us than for him." "We hope that he would accept to play here at least one game, just to show us what world class football is," Pacolli said. Hajlvalia, sixth last season, is based in a suburb of the Kosovo capital Pristina.
