Luis Suarez will make his long-awaited return to the national side on Friday when Uruguay travel to Brazil to lock horns with the Selecao.
Having been banned for 9 international games by FIFA for his bite on Giorgio Chiellini in the 2014 World Cup, the 29-year-old striker has not featured for Oscar Tabarez’s crew since then, missing over 16 months worth of competitive games.
His return to the national outfit will see him go head-to-head with team-mate and friend Neymar. Speaking ahead of the game, the Barcelona star admitted that he has made a wager on the tie with his Blaugrana buddy.
“We always do the warm up together at Barcelona so we joked about doing it before this match. We bet a hamburger. Things like that because we’re friends” Suarez confessed in the pre-match press conference.
