Luis Suárez is not expected to face any disciplinary consequences following the incident that took place in Wednesday’s training session. Sporting believes there is no case involving the Colombian striker, who remains fully integrated in Rui Borges’ work as normal.

According to the newspaper A Bola, there are two versions of the incident: the 'number 97 shirt' finished an exercise aimed at collecting biometric data and headed to the dressing room. After being informed that the session was not yet over, he returned to the pitch to complete the additional exercise indicated by the coaching staff.

The same source writes that the attitude was not interpreted by Sporting officials as an act of indiscipline and, therefore, will not lead to any measures. Suárez joined pre-season later due to Colombia’s participation in the World Cup and is still trying to regain his usual fitness levels.

The striker is coming off a particularly demanding season, in which he totaled 4,367 minutes in 53 matches, with 38 goals and seven assists. At the time, Fotis Ioannidis’ injury left Rui Borges with little room to manage the Colombian international’s workload.

The situation could now be reversed. Recovered and showing better physical indicators, Ioannidis is shaping up to start against Estrela da Amadora on Saturday at 8:30 p.m., leaving Luis Suárez on the bench.
