An Iraqi tourist visiting the United Kingdom was reportedly mobbed by fans of Liverpool star Luis Suarez as they thought that he was the Premier League top scorer.

The Suarez look-alike was visiting Liverpool as he has supported the club for a number of years and managed to meet Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge although he failed to meet the Uruguayan striker.

According to the Daily Express, the man pleaded with Suarez's and Liverpool fans to stop touching him, adding that he had to keep insisting that he is not the striker in order to get away from the 'crazy' mob.

The Suarez look-alike said that he is a big fan of the Liverpool fans, who have been 'loyal' to the club since the 1980s, adding that although he met a few Liverpool players, including Sturridge, he failed to meet Suarez.
