Luis Suarez should have no concerns about returning to Anfield , and should expect a warm welcome from the fans according to Brendan Rodgers . The former Liverpool striker has agreed to take part in a charity match at his old stomping ground on March 29 , which will also feature club captain Steven Gerrard and retired former vice-captain Jamie Carragher , who will captain the sides . 'It 'll be great . We 've kept in contact since he 's been away . He 's a top-class player . He loved his time here at Liverpool . He always wanted to come back , ' said Rodgers . Luis Suarez is going to return to Liverpool on March 29 for a charity game following his move to Barcelona . Suarez will be joined by current club captain Steven Gerrard who leaves for the MLS at the end of the season . Jamie Carragher will captain one of the teams in the match organised by the Liverpool FC Foundation . 'He 's got [ commitments ] internationally but he 's making every effort off his own bat to come back . It 'll be brilliant to see him and great for the supporters . ' Suarez left the Merseyside club under a dark cloud , having been banned for four months after biting Italy 's Giorgio Chiellini at last summer 's World Cup in Brazil . As his switch to Barcelona was confirmed during the close season , the 2014 PFA Player 's Player of the Year was unable to say farewell to his adoring fans at Anfield following a season that saw him eventually net an impressive 31 Premier League goals . However the Uruguay international will hope to get that chance later this month in the fixture organised by the Liverpool FC Foundation , depending on his international duties . Suarez left the Reds for Barcelona in the summer after a season that saw him score a total of 31 league goals . The Uruguay international left on somewhat unconventional terms during his ban for biting Giorgio Chiellini . The striker scored a brace on his return to England in Barca 's Champions League win over Manchester City . 'He loved Liverpool while he was here . He 's gone to another country , but he 's certainly adored here . The supporters loved having him here . 'Every time he stepped on to a training pitch , he gave everything . He 'll probably want to win this game as well . ' The Reds host Blackburn in the FA Cup quarter-final on Sunday , and Rodgers has his eyes set firmly on the prize . 'We want to make the top four and win a trophy . The objective is clear : To arrive as high as we can , not just fourth , and to win a trophy . If we can do that , then that will be success . '
Luis Suarez will make an incredible return to Anfield in a charity match . Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers said former star will be greeted warmly . The striker moved to Barcelona but was unable to say goodbye to fans .
