Ever since he switched from Liverpool to Barcelona in the summer of 2014, Luis Suarez has taken his extremely high-performance levels to even higher proportions, with his potency in front of goal being extremely crucial to Barcelona's successes since then.

The Uruguayan international has distinguished himself as the premier goalscorer in the world over the last decade and played his way into the annals of history at the legendary clubs - Ajax, Liverpool and Barcelona.

With 173 goals scored in just 237 matches in all competitions for the Blaugrana, Suarez is undoubtedly an indispensable member of the Barcelona first team, while his over 400 career goals place him as one of the highest scoring active footballers in the world.

A contract extension signed in 2016 sees Suarez earn the princely sum of £290,000 every week, which is just compensation for his immense contributions to Barcelona.
