Barca star Suarez has scored an impressive 173 goals and provided 94 assists in 237 games for the Spanish giants.
With Luis Suarez entering the twilight years of his career, Barcelona is beginning to look at long-term replacements for the Uruguayan.
Suarez has become an integral part of the Barca set-up since arriving from Liverpool in a £75million move almost five years ago.
The forward has scored an impressive 173 goals and provided 94 assists in 237 games for the Spanish giants, and has formed a deadly partnership with Lionel Messi.
But at 32 years old, he isn’t getting any younger and reports in Spain have claimed that club chiefs are now assessing their options going forward.
Though in no rush to immediately replace Suarez, the club has two possible replacements in mind who fit the criteria they are looking for.
Spanish daily AS report that Serbian striker Luka Jovic, currently starring on loan at Frankfurt from Benfica, is one of the names they’re looking at it.
The 21-year-old hitman has 15 goals in 24 Bundesliga appearances and would add the required firepower when Suarez leaves the Nou Camp.
Brazil-born Spanish international Rodrigo, who plays in La Liga with Valencia, is the alternative option that Barca is keeping tabs on.
Though more of a winger rather than a central forward, the 28-year-old has five goals and the same number of assists in La Liga.
Jovic is the preferred option by club chiefs, as claimed by AS, while Barca manager Ernesto Valverde would rather sign Rodrigo.
