The Uruguayan forward is also among the contenders for the prize
Former Liverpool striker, Luis Suarez has fallen under intense criticism in recent weeks amidst his run of poor form, having failed to find the back of the net in his last 5 La Liga outings. But, the Uruguayan sharpshooter deserves some plaudits for what he has already done in front of goal this season.

Suarez currently ranks among the most potent finishers in the La Liga at the moment, specifically sitting in the second position on the goalscoring chart below his Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi - having struck 15 times in 23 appearances in the Spanish top flight so far during the season.
Suarez might have entered into his thirties and seen some areas of his game decline, but the Uruguayan attacker has not lost his finishing instincts and with that, he will surely close in on scoring 30 goals before the end of the campaign.
