Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has revealed that his angst and frustration had made him act disgracefully and bite into the arm of Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.

Suarez has expressed that he wants to leave Anfield after he was banned for 10 games for his racially motivated offences, the Sun reports.

According to the report, the Uruguayan footballer has told his club that he intends to quit English football as he is being axed by the media on a regular basis.

Suarez admitted that he had made a mistake to have engaged himself in the 'biting' incident, adding that it was completely his fault and Ivanovic did not contribute in any way to the occurrence of the incident.

Suarez further added that he had just served a penalty which made him lose his temper and caused the shameful incident.

The footballer also accused Liverpool of not supporting him despite the club's constant support and motivation for the biter, thereby enraging the club and losing his chances with them.

However, Suarez still intends to be a part of Real Madrid and expressed his desire to work with Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo though he is aware that the switch is uncertain and his circumstances are complicated.
