Best Football Player in the World in the 2017-18 Season

#8 Luis Suarez

Late bloomerLuis Suarez has consistently been one of the best forwards on the planet for a number of years, and once again has shown his imperious goalscoring record by finding the back of the net on 23 occasions in 36 appearances.

While playing for Barcelona is more than just scoring goals, Suarez does his job expertly in breaking the lines and stretching the defence, allowing magician Lionel Messi to move into space and create chaos.

The Uruguayan forward has perhaps not dictated matches in the so-called ‘bigger’ games, especially in the Champions League, but he has time to sway those opinions of him with an important second leg coming up against Chelsea.

Suarez is an aggressive player and has one of the best winning mentalities in the game - it is no surprise that he has been one of the most prolific centre-forwards in Europe yet again.
