Amid Sporting’s goal drought, Luis Suárez reveals his dream: it’s important | OneFootball

Luis Suárez revealed that he dreams of making an appearance at the 2026 World Cup with Colombia. In the midst of a goal drought at Sporting (he has scored only one in the last six matches), the striker emphasized that confidence is fundamental to a striker’s success.

“Your level of confidence changes a lot when you’ve already scored goals for your club and then score for your national team as well. Confidence is always important. A striker lives for goals. When you score four goals for your country, your confidence grows immensely,” said Luis Suárez, the 27-year-old striker.

“All the strikers arrived with the dream of being in the national team and getting minutes on the pitch. We achieved the goal of qualifying for the World Cup, we have a good group, and we all want to make the coach’s decision as difficult as possible,” concluded Luis Suárez, speaking to Colombian radio station Antena 2.

With Fotis Ioannidis’ prolonged injury, Luis Suárez will be forced to put in extra hours at Sporting in the coming weeks. The striker had been alternating starts with the Greek international, but will now have to take on an increasingly important role in Rui Borges’ strategy.
