“I think we know about the circumstances that happened in the World Cup and he’s had the character and humility to first recognise that he made a mistake,” said Zubizarreta.

“I think that’s very important. He had the honour to come out and apologise to the people who had been hurt by his actions; the opposition and also football in general in the middle of a world football festival.

“Now it’s time for him to begin his recovery process. I think Luis Suarez did the best thing as a person and I also think as a footballer. What path he now takes, whether he stays at Liverpool or goes somewhere else, we will see.”
