Luis Suarez happy with first week of Barcelona training

Luis Suarez is delighted to be training with Barcelona.

The Uruguayan striker is currently serving a four-month suspension from competitive football for biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini during the World Cup finals in Brazil.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) upheld that decision last month but ruled Suarez could train with Barcelona, who bought him from Liverpool during the summer transfer window.

"The truth is that you suffer a lot," Suarez said. "It gives you a feeling of impotence not being able to do anything from the outside except talk and shout.

"Being able to tell my children that I am going to work gives me a feeling of calm. I am starting to feel like a footballer again."
