Suarez.’
The pupil sank his teeth into his classmate after copying the shamed Liverpool footballer who bit another player on Sunday.
Suarez, 26, who earns £100,000 a week, is facing a long ban after biting Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic.
But despite the global revulsion caused by the incident, Liverpool FC has refused to sack their £23million player – who has now been offered ‘anger management’ by the players’ union.
Last night mother Sharon Ellis said the attack on her son Ryan, 11, was a direct result of the example Suarez had set.
She said: ‘Suarez’s actions on the football field have led to my son being bitten.
The boys were at the school’s breakfast club and there had been some altercation because someone had stood on someone’s foot. The other boy turned round to my son and said, “I’m going to do a Luis Suarez, I’m going to bite you”.
‘And then he went ahead and bit his upper right arm. He then went around bragging to the other children that he had “done a Suarez”.’
Miss Ellis, 45, from Connah’s Quay, North Wales, said Ryan – a Liverpool fan – was left with a bruised upper arm. ‘He was a bit shaken. The bite went through two layers of clothing and left a mark,’ she said.
I think the world just likes a scape goat. Think about it closely- we just like to blame other people
