Barca legend Stoichkov warns Suarez will be 'marked man' in Spain

Barcelona legend Hristo Stoichkov has reportedly warned Uruguay striker Luis Suarez that he would be a marked man in Spain because of his biting antics at the World Cup.

Stoichkov is of the opinion that Suarez's biting antics means that everyone would be out to get him when he joins Barca from Liverpool.

According to the Daily Star, Suarez would not be able to feature for Barca until October due to a four-month ban for biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini during Uruguay's 1-0 win at the World Cup.

And Stoichkov, who was banned for two months for stamping on a referee in 1990, does not think Spanish football would welcome the striker.

Stoichkov said that Suarez seems a really good player to him, one of the best forwards, with the character required to play for the biggest clubs, but the bites are going to be a problem.

The Barcelona legend also said that Suarez is marked for the rest of his life, adding that to play at Barca with what the striker has done is a problem.

Stoichkov said that every opponent and the referees and the press would make the Uruguayan's life difficult, adding that he would have to play with provocation and media attention, which will leave him in permanent tension.
