The striker’s representatives are reportedly in talks with the Merseyside club's managing director Ian Ayre over a lucrative new deal, just six months after he pleaded for a move away from Anfield.
Suarez has been in blistering from this season and Hamann would love to see him stay, but he insists it's pointless to tie the 26-year-old to a new deal if he is not in it for the long haul.
The Uruguayan has no made secret of his desire to play Champions League football and the ex-Anfield favourite fears a new deal will not stop him pushing for a move away again if the Reds fail to finish in the top four.
The former German international, speaking on the Colin Murray show, said: “The way he is playing at the moment you have got think he is very happy, but you have got to be careful because the team is on a good run.
“It was probably the most impressive performance from any team this season on Sunday [in beating Tottenham 5-0]. They have been absolutely fantastic and in this form you have to think they will finish in the top four, but things can change.
“What must not happen is we have a situation next summer as we had last summer. He could sign a new contract now, take the £200,000 a week, the team finishes outside the top four and you have the same shenanigans.
“I want him to stay, but there needs to be clarity. He has got to understand what it means to commit.
“If there is a clause that he can go for £60million, £80million and someone pays it, that is obviously fair enough, but you can’t have a situation again like you had last summer.”
