The Uruguayan bagged a goal and an assist as Diego Simeone's charges defeated the Catalan outfit 2-0 in the Spanish capital on Saturday night.
Suarez initially decided against celebrating his goal in the first half, but then decided to put his hand to his ear like a telephone.
Some had interpreted that as the striker mocking Koeman for the way the Dutch coach informed on the phone last year that Barcelona does not need him.
However, Suarez insists the celebrations was meant for his kids and not disrespect towards the Blaugrana coach.
"I am happy for the team's victory, which is what we wanted. Barcelona is special to me, but my work is dedicated 100% to Atletico and we did everything to take the three points", as per reports from Marca.
"(The celebration) It was for people who know I have the same number and I am still using that phone.
"It was not for Koeman, not at all. I also did not celebrate fully out of respect for Barcelona."
