Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has given Barcelona star Luis Suarez a 50-goal target.

The Uruguayan is in scintillating form at the Camp Nou this season having scored 29 goals in 28 matches.

Suarez joined the Catalan giants from Liverpool for a £75m fee in the summer of 2014 following a three-and-a-half-year spell at Anfield.

"Suarez was always a fantastic player, but with Barcelona he's moved up another level," Carragher told Barca TV. "We always knew how good he was at Liverpool, but had to do that in the Champions League.

"Now he's one of the greatest players in world football. You wonder how many goals he'll get by the end of the season. He should be looking at maybe 50 goals."

In his first season at Barcelona, Suarez won the La Liga title, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League crown.
