Luis Suarez Talks About 'MSN', Reveals Leo Messi Is His Best Friend at Barcelona

They're dominating the footballing world together, so why wouldn't two of Barcelona's legendary front three be friends?

Luis Suarez has revealed just how close-knit the reigning Spanish, European and world champions are in an interview with Uruguay newspaper El Pais (via Sport).

The Uruguayan striker, currently in the mix to win La Liga's top-scorer gong, spoke about the partnership he has formed with fellow South Americans Lionel Messi and Neymar off the field.

"There's always something we laugh about," he said. "We laugh on and off the pitch. Ney is a happy guy, Leo too, although people don't think it. Results are going our way and this helps too."

Suarez is close with Brazil's Neymar and Argentinian defender Mascherano, but he revealed that five-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi is his closest friend at the club.

"Leo has an older child than Benja and one younger than Delfi, and the kids play," Suarez said. "With Leo we are the same age and we share anecdotes from when we were teens, our partners also get along well."

The three all go their separate ways for international duty this week before returning to Spain for the Clasico with Real Madrid on April 2.
