Ex-junior coach says Luis Suarez better suited to Atletico Madrid than Barcelona | OneFootball

Luis Suarez's former junior coach says he's better suited to Atletico Madrid than Barcelona.

Suarez scored twice on debut for Atletico in victory over Granada yesterday.

Daniel Enriquez, who coached Suarez at Nacional, told AS: "Luis has always been more a player for Atleti than for Barcelona. 20 years ago I told him that Atlético was perfect for him because he is more vertical. (Diego) Simeone has aimed very well with Suárez. He is ideal, he has already shown it against Granada. He knows he will make history.

"I remember when he went to Barcelona we had doubts because we believed that he would do better in a team like Atleti. We also told him in his stage in the Premier. He replied that (Carlos) Tevez did well in England and he stuck to that. Atleti is more ideal than Barcelona for Luis.

"I have no doubts that Atleti can win the Champions League with Suárez, although there are also many other powerful teams. Luis is all action, he has 3-4 years left at 100%. He is a bull. He is healthy and strong."
