Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez was caught on camera seemingly biting the finger of his teammate Jordi Alba during Inter Miami’s game against LA FC in the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinal on April 9, 2025.
According to a Daily Mail report, controversy arose when LAFC player Marlon Santos rashly tackled Argentine forward Lionel Messi and was booked by the referee.
Afterward, some Inter Miami players were furious about Santos’ tackle on Messi, sparking a controversy that led to players pushing and shoving each other.
During the scuffle, Suarez felt a hand on his upper chest and a finger in his mouth and briefly bit it, thinking it was an LAFC player.
However, it turned out that it was his own teammate Jordi Alba who was left in pain for some time before recovering later for the game to continue.
The match finished in favor of Inter Miami, who qualified for the semifinals of the Concacaf Champions Cup following a 3-2 aggregate win against LAFC.
Suarez has been caught on several occasions biting players during an altercation on the field, with the most notable one being Chielini at the World Cup.
Suarez has scored 20 league goals since joining Inter Miami and has made five assists in the 2024/2025 season.
