Barcelona star Luis Suarez is set for his first competitive international appearance since the 2014 World Cup after being included in Uruguay's squad for upcoming qualifiers.
Suarez, 29, was handed a nine-match ban - and four-month suspension from all football-related activities - after being found guilty of biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini in the group stages in Brazil.
He featured in three friendlies after that suspension, but is in line for competitive international outings later in March.
Uruguay face Brazil and Peru in World Cup qualifiers in March, with Suarez included in their 28-man squad named on Friday.
Suarez has starred for La Liga leaders Barca this campaign, scoring 41 goals in all competitions.
Uncapped Manchester United full-back Guillermo Varela has also been included in the squad.
Uruguay sit second in the table in qualifying after winning three of their opening four games.

Goalkeepers: Martin Campana (Independiente), Rodrigo Munoz (Libertad), Fernando Muslera (Galatasaray), Martin Silva (Vasco da Gama).
