Luis Suarez named in Uruguay squad

Uruguay have named Luis Suarez in a provisional squad for their upcoming friendlies with Oman and Saudi Arabia next month.

Suarez, serving a four-month suspension for biting Giorgio Chiellini, is free to participate in both games after the Court of Arbitration for Sport removed the stipulation that he was banned from "all football activity".

The Barcelona ace is one of 29 players in Oscar Tabarez's preliminary panel for the clash with Saudi Arabia on October 10 and Oman three days later.

The 27-year-old, who sealed a big-money move to Camp Nou from Liverpool in July, scored his first goal for the Catalans in a friendly against an Indonesian Under-19 select XI on Wednesday.
