Luis Suarez visited the Hospital Pereira Rossell in Montevideo this week with his wife Sofia

 So Suarez the Vampire has a lovely heart after all, well he proved it by keeping his promise to a young cancer patient when he delivered a signed Barcelona shirt to him in Montevideo on Thursday.

Suarez had  surprised Mateo in May when the cancer sufferer went to see his doctor for a check-up and was sat down for a private consultation with a ‘special’ doctor via video link. 

The boy was in tears when the mystery medic revealed himself as Suarez and told Mateo: ‘You are very brave, a fighter, so you must keep on going.’  

He however promised him a signed shirt if he continued to take his medication and follow his doctor’s instructions and was as good as his word when he visited the Hospital Pereira Rossell in Montevideo this week with his wife Sofia. Both donned white coats as they met with the children.
