Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville has claimed that Barcelona's Luis Suarez is currently the best forward in world football.

Neville took part in a Twitter Q&A on Monday afternoon, and the topic of the world's best striker was put to the pundit.

Harry Kane's form for Tottenham Hotspur has led to suggestions that the England international is currently the leading number nine in the world, while Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski is often placed in that category.

Neville, however, selected Barcelona's Suarez as the finest in his position when asked on social media.
