Luis Suarez, also financial consequences for the Chiellini bite

For a bite of bread ...

The troubles for Luis Suarez do not seem to be over. Following the decision of the FIFA to disqualify the player of Liverpool and the Uruguayan national team for nine days, with ancillary disqualification from all playing fields for at least 4 months, even the betting giant 888 has decided to terminate its sponsorship relationships.


In a press release issued by the company we read:


“888 had signed a sponsorship agreement with Luis Suarez following the fantastic season and the important goals achieved by the player. Unfortunately, following his actions during the match valid for the World Cup "Uruguay - Italy", 888 has decided to end his relations with Luis Suarez with immediate effect "

The Uruguayan player had become the company's ambassador just before the start of the world championship and, for the same, he had published a series of video diaries describing the world adventure of his national team.

The collaboration should have continued even after the Brazilian kermesse, unfortunately, victims, led 888, contrary to any form of unsportsmanlike behavior, to interrupt its collaboration with the player.  

Not of the same opinion unfortunately ADIDAS, also sponsor of Luis Suarez; the club agreed with FIFA's decision and made it known that it does not have any marketing activities planned with the player shortly, but any consequences regarding the sponsorship agreement and the contract with the player will be discussed directly with these after the World Cup.


Suarez is not the first time that he indulges in behavior of this type, bordering on bestiality. The twenty-seven-year-old player had in fact already bitten an opponent during his period of militancy in the ranks of theAjax: in the Ajax-PSV-Eindhoven match he had in fact "bitten" Otman Bakkal midfielder of the Dutch team. Later, when he moved to England, with the Liverpool shirt he had let himself go to a similar behavior trying to bite Ivanovic, defender of Chelsea and the Serbian national team, in the arm, which had cost him a suspension from the fields for 10 days.



The player following the incident said he was deeply sorry, also for the negative consequences that the increasingly pressing media attention was causing to his family and said he was ready to face a period of treatment at a specialist to learn how to "contain his anger ". Evidently this didn't work out
