Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher tries to make sense of the biting incident while speaking to Sky Sports and believes Luis Suarez's latest saga could push Liverpool into selling the striker, if the right price was paid.

Luis Suarez was served a ban for four months from all football by FIFA after he was found guilty of biting Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini in their final Group D match in Natal.

This comes not only as a big blow for Uruguay who can’t call him up for nine International matches, but also for his club Liverpool who will be missing a total of 13 matches for the English Premier side, including nine league matches.

When asked about how the club should handle the current situation, the defender said, “It's all about money. Of course the club will not be happy with the scenes, and Luis won't be happy himself, but it all comes down to numbers.”

He continued, "Liverpool are not going to let an £80-£100m player leave for a cut-price fee, but if someone did offer that type of money I think now they may think 'take the money’ I certainly don't think Liverpool should be looking to get rid of him on the cheap. If someone pays top dollar I think now may be the time, but if they don't then I don't think Liverpool will sell."
