Luis Suarez leads the assist charts for the last three league seasons LaLiga Santander - Barcelona Not just goals

A lot has been said about Luis Suarez's scoring drought, and the striker is going through one of his worst starts - he has scored three goals in the 11 matches he has played - however, that doesn't take into account that he has the highest amount of assists in LaLiga Santander over the last three seasons. The truth is that the contribution of the Uruguayan international to Barcelona goes far beyond his goals.

In fact, he has no rival and even beats his close friend and teammate Leo Messi.

Since the 15/16 season, the former Liverpool player has given a total of 44 assists, to add to his 112 goals in the league; decisive in Barcelona's successes.

Messi is one of the biggest suppliers of assists in the world, but in these last four campaigns he hasn't reached, at least for the moment, the level of his strike partner.

The Argentine has three less - 41 - and is the only player close to 'Luisito,' as the rest are far behind.

Kroos and Koke, for example, stand out for being the specialists in giving precise passes to their teammates, but neither the German nor the Madrilenian come close to the Uruguayan.

The Real Madrid midfielder has given 29 assists and the rojiblanco, 26.

Fifth in the ranking is another striker: Antoine Griezmann.

Leo Messi, the main beneficiary

This season, Suarez has given three final passes in LaLiga Santander: two went to Messi, in the matches against Alaves and Valencia, and another to Ousmane Dembele, in the clash against Huesca.

In the Champions League, a competition in which he hasn't yet scored, he assisted against PSV at Camp Nou, and the recipient was also the Argentine.

In fact, Suarez has become the best ally of 'La Pulga' having given him 27 assists and has thus overcome the incredible records held by Dani Alves.

Messi, by the way, has one more assist than Suarez in 18/19.

A total of four is the same number as Jony, Jesus Navas, Maxi Gomez and Sarabia.
