Luis Suarez Promises Not To Bite Again

He further disclosed that he was concerned for his future and depressed because of FIFA’s decision.
The Uruguayan, who was unveiled yesterday by Barca after been delayed for over five weeks after his transfer from Liverpool due to his latest suspension will still not be able to play a competitive game for the
Catalans until late October after his appeal against the ban was thrown out by the Court of Arbitration for Sport last week.
