Luis Suárez is a Uruguayan professional footballer who plays as a striker for Major League Soccer club Inter Miami. Known for his goal scoring ability, clever movement, and clinical finishing, he is regarded as one of the greatest strikers of all time and one of the best players of his generation. Nicknamed \"El Pistolero\" (\"The Gunman\"), individually, he has won two European Golden Shoes, an Eredivisie Golden Boot, a Premier League Golden Boot and a Pichichi Trophy. He ranks fourth for the all-time South American men's top goalscorers in international football (69), only trailing Pelé (77), Neymar (79), and Lionel Messi (112). He has also scored over 500 career goals for club and country.

Suárez began his senior club career at Uruguayan club Nacional in 2005. He signed for Groningen the following year, before transferring to Ajax in 2007. There, he won the KNVB Cup and the Eredivisie. In 2011, Suárez signed for Premier League club Liverpool, and won the League Cup in his first full season. In his final season with the club, he produced one of the most dominant seasons in Premier League history; he equalled the goalscoring record for a 38-game Premier League season, with Liverpool finishing just two points behind Manchester City in the title race. That summer, Barcelona signed Suárez £64.98 million (€82.3 million adjusted for inflation), making him one of the most expensive players of all time.

Suárez was part of a dominant attacking trio dubbed MSN, alongside Messi and Neymar. He won the treble of La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the UEFA Champions League in his first season, and in his second season he scored 59 goals in 53 matches as Barcelona won the double. He was named in the FIFA FIFPro World11 and awarded the Pichichi Trophy and his second European Golden Shoe, becoming the first player since 2009 to win both awards other than Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. He was also the first player ever to simultaneously lead La Liga in goals and assists. In 2020, he signed for Atlético Madrid, where he was instrumental to the club's La Liga title triumph in his debut season.

At international level, Suárez is Uruguay's all-time leading goalscorer, and formerly held the title of being the highest goalscorer in CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup qualifiers before being surpassed by Messi. He has represented his nation at four editions of the FIFA World Cup and five editions of the Copa América, as well as the 2012 Summer Olympics and the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup. He was named in the 2010 World Cup All-Star Team and won the 2011 Copa América, where he was awarded Best Player. Outside of his football credentials, Suárez has been a source of controversy throughout his career, including a goal-line handball clearance against Ghana at the 2010 FIFA World Cup, biting opponents on three occasions, accusations of diving, racist incidents, and spitting incidents.
