Suarez is currently serving a four-month ban from football after biting Italy's Giorgio Chiellini while representing Uruguay at the 2014 World Cup.

Rakitic, though, has been impressed with the striker's attitude in training ahead of his return to action at the end of October.

The Croatia midfielder is quoted by Marca.com as telling local reporters: "Suarez is looking very relaxed and is very polite. He's a great man and has already said that what happened won't be repeated."

Rakitic is personally enjoying his time at Camp Nou, having signed for the club from Sevilla during the summer.

He added: "I have a smile on my face every day when I go to training and that's the most important thing.

"I came to Barcelona to enjoy my football, work hard, give my all, help the team and share a dressing room with some of the best players in the world."
