# Aston Villa: Fans react to Luis Suarez update

**Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard has ‘called’ former Liverpool forward Luis Suarez ahead of a possible summer swoop.**

That’s according to journalist [Gerard Romero](https://twitter.com/gerardromero/status/1483580005795958793), and, as to be expected, the update has received plenty of interaction from Villa supporters on social media.

[Romero](https://twitter.com/gerardromero/status/1483534817438441480), who has over 300,000 Twitter followers, had previously shared details of an offer from Villa, with Suarez apparently turning down approaches from Palmeiras, Corinthians, Atletico Mineiro and a Saudi Arabian side to focus on a move to the Midlands.

He’s now [added](https://twitter.com/gerardromero/status/1483580005795958793) that Gerrard has ‘called’ Suarez ‘for the summer’, with the 34-year-old into his last [six months](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/luis-suarez/profil/spieler/44352) on his Atletico Madrid contract.

Gerrard’s former Reds teammate will turn 35 on Monday, but it seems as if a return to the Premier League to reunite with Gerrard and possibly Philippe Coutinho could be on the cards.
