Liverpool striker Luis Suarez says he has no plans to apologize for his recent request for a transfer according to Sky Sports sources.
Suarez has been forced to continue his training alone after accusing Liverpool of purposely withholding information about a possible transfer that would have sent him to Arsenal.
However, Professional Footballer's Association chief Gordon Taylor discovered the contract does not require Liverpool to sell him should they receive a bid of £40m.
Taylor has been called in by Suarez to try and seek a resolution between the player and the club over the exact meaning of the '£40million trigger' clause in the Uruguayan's contract - specifically whether it cues a sale or if things could be resolved with simple negotiations.
Taylor said: "It is a delicate situation and we are trying to help.
"These buy-out clauses have caused no end of problems in the past and they continue to do so because of the way they were drafted at the time.
"He [Suarez] believes the £40million amount that is mentioned, if that is offered that gives him the right to go.
"Liverpool, from their side, are saying that is a minimum figure from which they will consider negotiation and of course they will want to keep the player, unless they replace the player with someone as good or better, which is not going to be easy in a short period of time.
"We have been asked to try and help to sort the situation out and we have been trying to do that."
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers accused Suarez of showing "total disrespect" and speaking after a pre-season defeat to Celtic said only after an apology would he be welcomed back into the Anfield fold.
"Initially there will be a recognition that (there needs to be) an apology to his team-mates and the club" Rodgers had said on Saturday.
"I have seen him over a period of time. I know it is not the Luis Suarez we know and I have to protect the fans and the players because they deserve more than that."
