Barcelona star Luis Suarez has heaped praises on new teammate Lionel Messi and says the Argentine is a better player than his arch-rival, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Although, the Real Madrid man has scored 15 goals in just 7 games but Suarez insists his teammate has an edge in the ever-lasting rivalry between the duo.
“In my opinion Leo is better [than Ronaldo],” Suarez was quoted as saying by Mirror.
“I train and play with Leo every day and he surprises me every day. He is unique.
“Everybody knows what he has brought to Barcelona, what kind of world-class player he is.
“For me he is the best player in the world for what he has already done, and he’s still so young.”
Both players will go head to head on saturday in the first Clasico of the season when Ronaldo's Real hosts Messi's Barca at the Bernabeu.
Luis Suarez may have his Barcelona debut after his four month ban for Biting Georgio Chiellini at the World Cup.
