Suarez set for Liverpool return with Gerrard charity game

Luis Suarez is set to return to Anfield  after agreeing to take part in a charity game to mark Steven Gerrard's upcoming Liverpool departure at the end of the season.

The Uruguay international, who scored 82 goals in 133 games for Liverpool before leaving for Barcelona in a move worth €88 million last July, is one of a host of marquee names to sign up for the event.

Other Liverpool icons such as Xabi Alonso, Fernando Torres, Pepe Reina and Dirk Kuyt will be joined by the likes of Thierry Henry, Didier Drogba and John Terry.

Current Liverpool players who are not on international duty will also take part in the game, with the two teams to be skippered by Gerrard and Jamie Carragher.

All proceeds from the match will go to charities in the local community.
