Ranking Liverpool’s 6 best January signings ever

#1 Luis Suarez

Surely one of Liverpool's greatest

Currently, one of the best No. 9s in the world, Luis Suarez will go down as one of Liverpool’s and Barcelona’s all-time greats.

The Uruguayan spent just three and a half years at Anfield, and to be considered in the same breath as some of Liverpool’s greatest is a testament to the impact that the man had on proceedings.

Suarez joined Liverpool from Ajax for a fee of £22.8 million in the fateful January transfer window of 2011, that saw the arrival of Andy Carroll and the departure of Fernando Torres. To replace Torres’ goals at Liverpool, it would a big task for any player let alone Suarez.

While Carroll failed miserably, Suarez’s impact meant Liverpool fans forgot El Nino and they had a new hero to worship. In spite of all the racism and biting related controversies, it was Suarez who almost single-handedly led Liverpool to the league title in 2014.

The clinical striker racked up 31 goals in just 33 matches, a record in a 38-match league until broken by Mohammed Salah last season. All in all, the brilliant frontman ended up with 82 goals in 133 matches for the Reds.

Due to his brilliance, Suarez ranks number 1 in the list of January signings made by Liverpool.
