Liverpool chief executive Ian Ayre is meeting a Barcelona delegation, led by technical director Raul Sanllehi, in London today to discuss Suarez's move to the Nou Camp.
The Catalans want to include Alexis Sanchez in the deal and they value the Chile World Cup forward at £32million.
Although both sides are willing to do a deal, Suarez's valuation could prove to be a major sticking point.
Liverpool feel they are in a strong bargaining position because Suarez signed a new long-term deal earlier this year and because Barcelona are so keen to sign him.
Barcelona feel Liverpool's position has been weakened because of his ban and the fact the player wants to leave.
Sanchez is another complication and while Liverpool want him and Barcelona are happy to include him in any deal, the South American is not keen on moving to Anfield.
He would prefer to stay at the Nou Camp and has told friends he would rather join Arsenal if he does go.
Which club needs Alexis Sanchez more?
Liverpool will demand a straight £80million cash deal if Sanchez refuses to come to Anfield, which Barcelona are unwilling to pay.
What is clear is that Liverpool want to resolve the situation quickly and they do not want another summer saga over Suarez's future hanging over their pre-season preparations.
