2014 World Cup biting incident cost him Real Madrid move

Former Barcelona and Atletico Madrid star Luis Suarez almost joined Cheap Real Madrid Football Shirts in 2014.

 

Suarez is poised to start a new chapter in his career this month as he kicks off the 2024 MLS season with Inter Miami.

 

The veteran striker sought a reunion with Lionel Messi in Florida, and this season is anticipated to mark his final campaign before retirement.

 

Suarez reportedly confessed in an interview that his career in Spain could have been very different.

 

After an outstanding final season at Liverpool in 2013/14, Suarez expressed his desire to depart Anfield following the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

 

However, a controversial incident at the tournament effectively ended Real Madrid’s transfer interest, as Cheap Barcelona Soccer Jersey stepped up their efforts.

 

Suarez infamously bit Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini, resulting in a four-month FIFA ban before completing his move to Barcelona.

 

“My representatives spoke to Cheap Real Madrid Football Shirts before the 2014 World Cup. They wanted to sign me and everything was going in the right direction”, he said.

 

 

“They were thinking about selling Karim Benzema to Arsenal, everything was already done.

 

“However, when the World Cup started, Replica Barcelona Football Shirts entered the race, and obviously I preferred Barca.

 

“With the situation over the bite, Real Madrid lost interest, and Barca became more interested. In the end I had both options, and I chose Barca, because it was my dream.”

 

Suarez scored 198 goals in 283 appearances in Catalonia, winning four La Liga titles and a UEFA Champions League. He then moved on to Atletico, where he won the league title in 2021.
