Luis Suarez has once again spoken about the racism charge that was brought against him, this time he spoke to 'Russia Today' whilst in Moscow with the Uruguay national team.
"The suspension, I suppose, you could call strange and unbelievable.''
"Without a single shred of proof, they suspended me. I accepted it without saying anything obviously because they could have made the suspension longer a...nd it would have just made the whole thing continue, but my conscience is completely calm, and so is that of the club and my family.
"There was not a single convincing proof that I had done any of the things they accused me of doing. I am very calm about all of it. I have played all my childhood and everyone knows that in Uruguay there is a huge black population. I had team-mates and friends of both colours all the time in the national team, in Liverpool, in Holland, where the majority are from Surinam, and I never had any problem with them.
"Holland is one of the countries in the world where there is the highest number of black players and at no point was there an issue. Well, these are the things about football. It seems to me that they had to get rid of a Liverpool player and, well, they definitely were gratified by all of this."
Suarez added: "What the English press has said about me does not interest me. What interests me is what they say about me in Uruguay and in Liverpool, and they have always been very supportive.
"After the suspension was confirmed, I was told that the fans would taunt me, they would whistle me, insult me and shout at me, but to be honest it is not something I was worried about or paid attention to. Everyone whistled me in all of the stadiums I played in all the time anyway, even before the allegation of racism. It was just the same. I tried to pay it as little attention as possible to focus on what I like to do, which is to play."
He is such a great guy
