LUIS SUAREZ

Luis Suarez heads out of Barcelona with 198 goals and 13 trophies in just six years. The Uruguay international will be missed profoundly by Lionel Messi and the absence of their fabulous chemistry in the final third could have ramifications in the season. With that said, the player arrived at a very difficult time at the Camp Nou and bows out a legend.

The former Liverpool marksman was banned for four months due to a biting incident at the FIFA World Cup in 2014 and subsequently could not play for the Blaugrana until midseason. He developed a formidable attack with Messi and benefited from his sharpness and build-up play. Moreover, their personal relationship does not need any introduction.
