Oscar Tabarez does not want to rush Luis Suarez's future with Uruguay

The veteran tactician once again reiterated his backing for the Barcelona striker.

Barcelona striker Luis Suarez who scored a brace against Inter Milan in their 2-1 win will miss Uruguay's crucial clashes against Peru, as he will undergo treatment in the city.

The 32-year old forward has 111 appearances for the La Celeste till date and was also a part of the preliminary side for the clashes in Montevedio and Lima. However, he was later removed from the squad.

Their star man's absence could be a factor for Uruguay and Tabarez but the tactician feels that people should not draw concussions from his injury and also believes that Suarez will feature for Uruguay again.

"Every player wears out during his career. In the 60's I read an article about Pele, I don't need to introduce him, written by doctors saying that Pele had the body of someone 20 years older than him.

"So, how long has Suarez been on the national team? He's here from 2007. How many games he played? How many goals he scored? How many times did he play injured? How many times he had surprising recoveries?

"For how quick they were or how they escaped normal things like the necessary recovery time and he overcame that. So, I think it's rushed and it's not knowing the player [Suarez] saying he's over. Not at all. Time will tell who's right. We have a lot of confidence in him being fit.

Tabarez also spoke about how uncertain the future of a player is. He revealed that he never thought Suarez will reach where he is today, but refused to take credit for it.

"It's very hard to guess the future of a player. I didn't guess what Luis Suarez has achieved in football. In 2006, when he first came here to train I saw things on him that weren't normal, but there was no way I could imagine, from there, all the career he had. I don't take credit on that either. The credit is his. He did all that. He had ups and downs, he made mistakes, but every time he came, he brought something new.

"He was the top scorer in Groningen, he went to Ajax, he became Ajax's captain with just 21 years old, then moving to Liverpool, all the goals he scored, he keeps breaking records. With a huge wear out that has given him some problems but he always keeps his head up. That's the kind of player that sets an era in a national team and in a given time those players were youngsters. So, you have to pay attention to them sometime and if you see something, you help them out.

"What Luis Suarez has given to Uruguayan football is huge. Never mind the chance that he can give something little from now on. I hope he can still give us something. I'm not 100 percent sure, he can have some problem. But, we can't worry just for one injury or missing one game," Tabarez concluded outlining Suarez's contribution to Uruguayan football over the years.

The 32-year old forward also scored a stunning volley against Sevilla in Barcelona's 4-0 win. Suarez is also the all-time leading scorer for Uruguay with 58 goals, after making his debut way back in 2007.
