The incident see below caused a media furore, and Suarez was hit with a 10 match ban from the FA, thus putting an end to Suarez's season.

Suarez's season did end on a positive note however as the fans voted him the Standard Chartered Player of the Season. He had also collected four Player of the Month awards throughout the season from the club. Suarez had also been named in the PFA Team of the Year, however he missed out on the Player of the Year award, reportedly with the biting incident costing him a large number of votes. Whilst there, he gave a series of interviews in which he confirmed his wish to leave Liverpool.

He initially cited the impact of the media in England, making his and his family's lives uncomfortable, and suggested he would be keen on a move to Spanish giants Real Madrid, who were credited with an interest in the Uruguay striker. However Real Madrid failed to follow up their interest with a bid, and eventually Premier League rivals Arsenal stepped in. Suarez, still openly discussing his future whilst in South America, then began to talk of his wish to move to a Champions League club, and dropped his complaints about the English media, whilst stating that he was pleased with Arsenal's interest in him.

The bid caused something of a stir as the specificity of the bid suggested they had been informed of the details of Suarez's contract clause, which ordinarily should remain confidential.

Rodgers discussed how much of a mistake he felt it would be for Suarez to turn his back on Liverpool and join one of their direct rivals in the Premier League, who he also felt were no bigger as a club than the Reds, and cited the unwavering support given to him by Liverpool fans throughout his suspensions, suggesting Suarez owed the fans a debt.

Liverpool fans reacted angrily to news that Suarez was keen on the move to Arsenal, not least because Suarez seemingly had lied about the impact of the media on his wish to leave Anfield, but with Arsenal finishing fourth in the League during the season, they were perceived as the club Liverpool needed to aim to catch up to and overtake in order for the club to reclaim their place in Europe's elite club competition.

However just a day later, Suarez garnered a furious backlash from the fans after he gave interviews to The Telegraph and The Guardian, affirming his wish to leave Liverpool and join Arsenal. He stated that he would be prepared to hand in a transfer request and pursue legal proceedings against Liverpool if they continued to block his move to Arsenal, whilst also refuting all claims that he was being disloyal to the Anfield club regardless of their self-harming support for him during the Patrice Evra and Branislav Ivanovic incidents.

Liverpool and manager Brendan Rodgers reacted furiously to Suarez's interviews. He was ordered by the club to train alone- although this was reportedly due to half-hearted performances in training and pre-season matches.

John Henry then sought to echo Rodgers' sentiments and quash all possibility of Suarez leaving, telling the press that Liverpool would now not entertain offers for Suarez from anyone, and described the idea of selling Suarez to Arsenal as 'ludicrous. During the remainder of the transfer window, Suarez was less outspoken to the press and seemed to accept that he would not receive the transfer he wished. Arsenal admitted defeat in their pursuit of the player whilst no other clubs appeared to make a significant effort to sign him.

Suarez remained a Liverpool player after the close of the transfer window, and claimed that he was 'delighted' to be staying. Suarez finally made his return from suspension on 25 September , as he played the duration of Liverpool's League Cup defeat away at Manchester United.
