Suarez doesn't owe Uruguay anything, says Forlan

After missing almost two years of action for Uruguay, Diego Forlan insists Luis Suarez owes the national team nothing.

Luis Suarez does not owe Uruguay anything following his actions at the 2014 World Cup, according to former international teammate Diego Forlan.

Suarez was handed a nine-game international suspension and banned from all football-related activity for four months after deliberately biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini in their group-game fixture in Brazil.

The suspension saw Suarez miss Uruguay's round of 16 tie against Colombia - which it lost 2-0 - as well as Uruguay's entire 2015 Copa America campaign.
