The ban will mean Suarez misses the rest of the international tournament, including Uruguay's last 16 match against Colombia on Saturday, and the start of the Premier League next season.
Tongiht it was confirmed Suarez is not the only historic thorn in England's side heading home. Despite Portugal beating Ghana 2-1, Christiano Ronaldo's team failed to qualify for the next round.

    A four-month ban from all football activity means Suarez will also not be able to play for his club Liverpool until October 26. 

    Unless there are changes to Liverpool's fixture schedule he would miss nine Premier League games and the first match he would be eligible for would be at Newcastle United on Nov. 1.
    It also stops him from even training with Liverpool until the ban ends in late October. 

    Claudio Sulser, chairman of the Fifa disciplinary committee, said: 'Such behavior cannot be tolerated on any football pitch and in particular not at a Fifa World Cup, when the eyes of millions of people are on the stars on the field.'

    The nine-game ban will serve during Uruguay's next nine fixtures, including the game against Colombia. By banning Suarez from all football activities, Fifa also prohibited Suarez from even entering a stadium at the World Cup.


    SUAREZ: 'THE CANNIBAL OF AJAX'

    Suarez has a highly controversial history as a player.
    In 2010 he earned the nickname the cannibal of Ajx after drawing blood from the shoulder of PSV Eindhoven's Otman Bakkal, receiving a seven match ban.
    At the end of the 2012-13 season he was banned from another ten games after biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic on the forearm.
    In 2011, Suárez received an eight-match ban and was fined for racially abusing French defender Patrice Evra in a match against Manchester United after calling him a 'Negro' or 'Negros' seven times during the game.
    In another 2010 incident Suarez was guilty of pulling off one of the World Cup's most glaring fouls when he cleared a goal-bound header from Ghana off the line with his hand late in extra time.
    Suarez was sent off, but hung around near the tunnel to watch Ghana's Asamoah Gyan miss the penalty and then celebrated frantically.
    He later boasted: 'Truth is it was worth it.'
    The four-month ban is likely to include Liverpool's first three Champions League group-stage games in the five-time European champion's return after a five-year absence. 
    Suarez will also miss the first nine matches of the Premier League and has been ruled out of next year's Copa America.

    Officials also fined the Liverpool striker 100,000 Swiss francs, equivalent to £65,000.

    Fischer said Suarez would still be allowed transfer to a different club during the ban, but would not be able to play for a new club until the sanction ends. 

    Fischer said any appeal must first go to the Fifa appeal committee. If rejected, Suarez and Uruguay could take the case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland. 

    At CAS, Suarez could first appeal to have the sanctions frozen during the process which would clear him to return early for Liverpool. 

    Uruguay FA president Wilmar Valdez said the association would appeal against the Suarez sanctions.

    Speaking outside the FIFA hotel in Rio, he told reporters: 'We are preparing our appeal now, we have three days to do it. 'It is an excessive decision and there was not enough evidence and I have seen more aggressive incidents recently. 'It is a severe punishment. I don't know exactly which arguments they used but it is a tough punishment for Suarez.

    'It's feels like Uruguay has been thrown out of the World Cup. We all know what Suarez means to Uruguay and to football around the world - not having Suarez would be a loss to any team.'

    The latest ban marks the third time Suarez has been barred from football for biting - he bit PSV's Otman Bakkal in 2010, and Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic at the end of the 2012-13 season

    Meanwhile Ian Ayre, chief executive officer of Liverpool Football Club, said: 'The club will wait until we have seen and had time to review the FIFA Disciplinary Committee report before making any further comment.'

    The club are understood to be taking specialist advice - which includes legal counsel - over what they see as an unprecedented incident.

    Elsewhere Suarez's sponsor Adidas said in a statement: 'Adidas fully supports Fifa's decision. Adidas certainly does not condone Luis Suarez's recent behaviour. 

    'We will again be reminding him of the high standards we expect from our players. We have no plan to use Suarez for any additional marketing activities during the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
    'We will discuss all aspects of our future partnership directly with Suarez and his team following the World Cup.'

    While the ban does not stop Suarez from moving teams this summer, it is expected complicate a rumoured move to FC Barcelona.

    The latest ban marks the third time that the married father-of-two has been barred from playing because of biting.

    He was suspended for seven games in 2010 after biting down on the shoulder of PSV Eindhoven’s Otman Bakkal while playing for Dutch club Ajax in 2010.

    At the end of the 2012-13 season he was banned for a further ten games after biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic on the forearm.

    In total Suarez has now missed 39 games from biting alone, more than a full season's worth of fixtures.

    The Uruguayan, who scored the two goals that effectively ended England’s World Cup hopes, was watched by millions of TV viewers plunging his mouth towards Chiellini’s shoulder on Tuesday night.

    The Italian player pulled down his shirt to reveal a red bite mark, but the referee took no action and Suarez was allowed to continue playing.

    Uruguay then scored to go through to the tournament’s knock-out stages at Italy’s expense.
    Suarez’s lawyer yesterday claimed that European football chiefs were trying to have the striker banned. Alejandro Balbi told Uruguayan radio: ‘We don’t have any doubts that this has happened because it’s Suarez and secondly because Italy was eliminated. 

    'There’s a lot of pressure from England and Italy.’

    The lawyer, who is a board member of Uruguay’s football association, also suggested Suarez was being targeted because he threatened other nations’ chances of winning the World Cup, including those of hosts Brazil.

    Defending himself after the game, Suarez said: 'These are things that happen on the pitch, we were both in the area, he thrust his shoulder into me.

    'These things happen on the pitch, and we don't have to give them so much (importance).'


    WHAT ARE THE RULES? HOW FIFA FOUND AGAINST LUIS SUAREZ

    Fifa found Suarez breached articles 48 and 57 of the Disciplinary Code in deciding his ban, and  Article 136 explains how he was banned from all football.

    (1) Including the automatic suspension incurred in accordance with art. 18 par. 4, any recipient of a direct red card shall be suspended as follows:

    c) at least one match for unsporting conduct towards an opponent or a person other than a match official (subject to art. 53, 54 and 57-60);
