The hitman from Uruguay, Luis Suárez is all about scoring goals. From Ajax to Liverpool to now Bareclona, Suárez has been a hit wherever he has gone. We are familiar with Suárez and his unique scoring feats, here is a look at the 10 Things You Didn’t Know About Luis Suarez.

Luis Suárez swept the streets of Montevideo

Times were tough for Luis when he was growing up in the capital city of Montevideo in Uruguay. He used to sweep the streets while not on the pitch and practice football at the same time. Suárez, in fact, endured a lot of hard times en route to his stardom later on in his career. Unknown fact about Luis Suárez?

Luis Suárez married his Childhood Sweetheart

Much like his best pal Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez ended up marrying the girl he loved as a teenager, Sofia Balbi. The couple are now based in Barcelona in Spain and have three kids. They are family friends to Lionel Messi’s as well. “Who he actually is” about Luis Suárez!

Suárez has a famous namesake

Few will know that another Spanish footballer by the name of Luis Suárez took the World by storm in the 1950s and 60s when the Classico rivalry between Barca and Real Madrid was at its peak. The legendary Luis Suárez scored a total of 60 goals for the Catalans and while Suárez already has over 250 goals for Barcelona, he would always be compared with his namesake from the past. Isn’t it interesting about Luis Suárez?

Suárez has a biting problem

Luis Suárez came into the headlines during the 2010 World Cup when he bit Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini on the shoulder in a match between Uruguay and Italy. This was not the first time he has engaged in violence on the pitch, previously biting opposition players on a number of occasions and even headbutting a referee when he was 16. Disliked this about Luis Suárez?

About Luis Suárez & Hat-tricks

Fans would know that when Luis Suárez gets scoring, he keeps on scoring. This was the case in England as well when he represented Liverpool. He scored a total of 6 hat-tricks for the Reds, playing alongside the likes of Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher which makes him the striker to have the most frequent hat-tricks in English football, one every 18 games. He has scored 3 hat-tricks against Norwich City. Thrilling about Luis Suárez?

Strange ears, great returns

Luis Suárez has oddly strange cocky ears, ones that stand out in the crowd. While at Ajax, he appeared in an advertisement for a hearing aid that found his ears to be an ideal tool to promote their product.

The most loved Liverpool No.7 of all time

Liverpool fans adore Luis Suárez and were heartbroken when he left Anfield for Barcelona. In a poll conducted to determine the greatest Liverpool No.7 of all time, Luis Suárez surprisingly leads the list with 43% votes ahead of the legendary Kenny Danglish. Suárez’ goal-like fact about Luis Suárez?

Suárez’s hometown has a club called Liverpool FC

It might be the strangest of things, but Montevideo, Uruguay’s capital city has a football team by the name of Liverpool FC. Although they have no connection to the Anfield outfit, it does show that the World is a small place. Uruguay’s Liverpool FC wear an away kit colored red while their home kit is white.

Suárez’s daughter’s strange connection to Anfield

Suárez was still at Ajax, smashing in goals for the Dutch outfit when he and his partner had their first child, Delfina, a girl. Now, the word Delfina is an anagram of the word Anfield, the home of Liverpool FC where he got transferred four months later and attained a legendary status during his time at the club. Stunning about Luis Suárez?

Luis Suárez and Nicknames

Nicknames are a common thing between fans and footballers or even at times between fellow footballers. Luis Suárez has had his share of nicknames, earning the titles of El Pistolero meaning the gunfighter and El Conejo meaning a rabbit. While his fighting spirit and finishing skills are key to his earning these nicknames, he surely is one of the greats of his time by any extent.
