Barcelona striker Luis Suarez has not joined up with Uruguay this week in order to remain in Catalonia and work on rehabilitating his knee, with it even suggested before he would need an operation. That was ruled out, though, and Suarez is instead following a careful plan over these two weeks without club football.
Suarez has stayed in Barcelona and will not play for Uruguay in their friendly matches against Austria and Poland. The reason is that he needs to rest and follow a specific plan to ensure his knee problems go away and he can play normally once again, Suarez is keen to leave them behind and focus on re-finding his best form.
