The Spanish football club Barcelona struck a deal to buy the disgraced Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez from Liverpool, sealing the transfer despite an uproar following the biting incident at the FIFA World Cup

Barcelona pushed ahead to sign the 27‑year‑old reportedly on condition he apologize for biting Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini.

British media put the sum at around 120 million NZ dollars.
