Arsenal made a bid of £40,000,001 for Liverpool's Luis Suarez last night which was immediately rejected by the Anfield Club. The extra £1 is thought to trigger a clause in Suarez's contract which means he has to be informed of the bid.
Liverpool owner John W Henry took to Twitter this morning to express his amusement at the bid.
What do you think they're smoking over there at Emirates?
