Player to Watch: Luis Suarez
The Uruguay legend has done well to start the season with Gremio. At 36 years of age, he is in the final stage of his career trying to make his mark in Brazil's Serie A. In four league appearances thus far, he scored a couple of goals with as many assists. He was also available for Cup competition playing in five games while scoring two goals with three assists on the record as well.
Suarez still loves to compete and after his contract with Atletico Madrid expired he went back to Uruguay playing for Nacional, a club where he started his career almost 20 years ago. He decided that it is time to move on once again after the season in his home country was concluded and found another opportunity in Gremio.
The Uruguayan's career has been a tremendous story full of twists and amazing achievements. He has scored 456 goals in 738 appearances which makes him one of the greatest strikers of his generation.
