Luis Suarez : 'I can't forget that I had to suffer, that my family had to suffer'

After rocking Liverpool with a statement saying that he could no longer stay at Liverpool, Luis Suarez has reiterated his desire to leave.

Speaking to RR Gol while on international duty, Suarez said, "Without any proof they gave me an eight-match ban. But with [John] Terry, where they had proof, lip-readers, they gave him four. I'm South American and I think that's the root of all of this."









He added: "Liverpool is a club that I dreamt about playing for as a boy. I have been with great players there, they know me and I would love to continue for many more years at Liverpool. The stadium is spectacular, the fans are phenomenal: people with tattoos of me, things that I could never have imagined. After the [Evra] suspension people would come up to me, this is something that really touched me and they would say: 'Luis forget everything and stay.' But I can't forget as it was something that I had to suffer, that my family had to suffer and away from football I have a family to support and who are hurt by these things.
"About a week ago I was walking in a shopping centre near Manchester and three or four guys asked me for a photo. While we were posing for it my wife said to me: 'Luis, get out of the photo.' She noticed they were making biting gestures. I was with my wife and my daughter. Things like that get on your nerves. My wife was on the brink of tears and the blokes ran off laughing. You get tired of stuff like that."
Suárez, who received a 10-match ban for biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic last season, again stated he was tempted at the thought of playing for Real Madrid but "the only thing I know is that I have a contract [with Liverpool]".
He added: "My agent said to remain calm rather than quiet, remain calm and when there is concrete interest you'll be the first to know."

Meanwhile, Liverpool have completed the signing of striker Iago Aspas from Celta Vigo.
