Barcelona striker Luis Suarez turned 30 on Tuesday and we've looked back at his club career in numbers.

Suarez learned his football talents on the dusty streets of Uruguay's largest city Montevideo.

He joined the youth team of the country's most successful team Nacional at 14 years old and made the first-team squad two years later.

At 19, Suarez signed for FC Gronigen in the Netherlands and alerted Ajax after just one season in the Eredivisie, signing a five-year contract with the Dutch giants in August 2007.

The Uruguayan moved to Liverpool for a club record £22.8m in January 2011, eclipsed by the £35m signing of Andy Carroll hours later, almost helping the Reds win their first Premier League title in 2013/14.

Suarez completed a £65m move to Barcelona in July 2014 to forge the 'MSN' strike-force alongside Lionel Messi and Neymar, winning back-to-back La Liga titles.
