Luis Suárez has a notorious history of suspensions throughout his football career, with several major incidents marking his record. The most severe suspension occurred after the 2014 World Cup when he bit Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini. FIFA imposed a four-month ban from all football-related activities and a stadium ban, effectively ruling him out of Uruguay’s remaining World Cup games and the following Copa América. The fine was £66,000, and the ban seriously affected his transition to Barcelona, delaying his debut until late October 2014. Despite the setback, Suárez played a key role in Barcelona's treble-winning 2014-15 season after returning to the field.

This Chiellini incident was the third biting episode in Suárez’s career, which collectively are among his most infamous disciplinary actions. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) upheld the FIFA ban but allowed Suárez to train with Barcelona, lifting the total ban on football-related activities except competitive matches and stadium access. He was able to participate in friendlies and officially debuted for Barcelona in August 2014 during the Gamper Trophy.

More recently, Suárez faced potential suspension again after an incident in the 2023 Leagues Cup, where he appeared to spit at a Seattle Sounders coach following Inter Miami’s defeat. Approaching the end of his career at age 38, such a suspension could sideline him for a significant portion of his remaining professional time.

Overall, Suárez’s disciplinary record includes multiple suspensions linked to biting and spitting incidents, with the Chiellini biting ban standing out as the longest and most impactful. His behavior on and off the pitch has resulted in several interruptions to his playing career, affecting both club and international duties.
