Reports in Spain suggest the Premier League club want to sign the 20-year-old, who is currently on loan at Sevilla.

However, the Blues will have to wait until the summer of 2016 as his temporary spell in Seville is set to run for two seasons.

Attacking midfielder Suarez signed for Barcelona during the summer transfer window of 2013 from Manchester City in a deal that could rise to £8.1m.

He penned a four-year deal but failed to break through into the Catalan club's first team last season despite impressing in his 36 appearances in Segunda Division for the B team.

Chelsea have previously attempted to sign Suarez but lost out to Manchester City in 2011.
