Barcelona's new signing Luis Suarez will miss the Spanish club's first six matches due to the ban for biting an opponent during the World Cup, yet the striker has already been spotted showing off his fancy footballing skills on the streets of London.
However, he is not really the banned footballer. He is actually Peyman Tadayoni, a 32-year-old doorman, who se picture went viral on Wednesday due to his likeliness to the Uruguayan footballer.
After being tweeted with the caption Suarez working as a bouncer in Kensington, Tadayoni has been recognised everywhere he goes, the Daily Star reported.
Suarez's doppelganger said that he gets 'blokes' girlfriends' asking if they can have their picture with him. Tadayoni said that he cannot stand Suarez, hates the way the Uruguayan plays.
He said that he is a Manchester United fan so he has got a right to hate the former Liverpool striker.
The amateur goalkeeper was videoed doing a few kick ups outside the shop he works at in Kensington, west London. His skills do not match those of Suarez but that has not stopped people calling him out for the past two years.
Tadayoni added that there's nothing he can do. He said that if he shaves his hair, it still happens, if he grows a beard it still happens, if he grows a moustache, it still happens.
He further added that he is better looking than Suarez and has got better teeth. The amateur footballer also joked that he would never bite some but would do soon if all this carries on.
