Suárez, Spain's Uruguayan crown prince

Luis Suárez, remains on fire in front of goal. The Barcelona sharpshooter notched up his 20th league strike of the season against Levante, and is on course for both the Pichichi Trophy (for the highest scorer in La Liga) and the European Golden Shoe award. His goalscoring capacity seems to be infinite.

The former Liverpool man's statistics are without doubt quite exceptional, and if he goes on banging them in at this rate, he might well become the highest-ever Uruguayan goalscorer in the history of the Spanish league.

In fact, now, after 23 league games, Suárez has the highest number of goals scored at this stage by a player from Uruguay. He is ahead of distinguished marksmen like Diego Forlán, Fernando Morena, Jorge Orosmán da Silva, Rubén Sosa and Héctor Núñez. Even in his best season at Atlético Madrid, at this point in the league programme Forlán had scored five goals fewer than Suárez, and if he goes on like this, the Barça star will surpass all of his fellow countrymen by the end of the campaign, and inscribe his name in La Liga history.
