bio: |
  Born 2 May 1935, Suárez rose to prominence as a creative inside forward at Barcelona in the 1950s, then reached his prime at Inter Milan, where he became the primary creative force in Helenio Herrera's squad — elegant, fluid, orchestrating from deep. In 1964, he helped Spain win their first European Championship. He retired as a player in 1973 after three seasons at Sampdoria, then turned to coaching: three stints at Inter, a European Under-21 Championship with Spain's youth side in 1986, and the senior national team to the round of 16 at the 1990 World Cup. He died in Milan on 9 July 2023, aged 88.
