Crossing the line : my story
Suárez, Luis, 1987-2014
Book
Luis Suarez was seven years old when he started playing football on the streets of Montevideo. That guile and trickery of the street kid, the botija, attracted the attention of scouts from Dutch team Groningen, before the giants of Ajax decided to recruit him into their ranks. After a phenomenal number of goals and a starring appearence in the 2010 World Cup, Suarez was lured to Merseyside by Kenny Dalglish. But his career has not been without controversy. His naturally fiery temperament had him caught up in a very public incident with Patrice Evra of bitter rivals Manchester United, and he was banned for ten games after biting Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic. Here, in his offical autobiography, Suarez will talk candidly about the highs and lows of his career, his love of his adopted city and fans and the never-say-die attitude that sometimes makes him go too far.
