Barcelona assistant coach Eder Sarabia believes Luis Suarez's return will be like a new signing when the season resumes.

The striker is working hard to overcome his injury which would have kept him out for the rest of the campaign.

"We have a lot of hope that Suarez will be a very good signing," said Quique Setien's No 2, Sarabia.

"Until now there's been a winter and summer window, and now there's a confinement window too."

In this sense he recognised the player's hope. "We've seen him work like a savage each day, working and trying to get back as soon as possible. I saw all the goals he scored at Barca and I'm drooling."
