Rivaldo supports Barcelona's reported interest in Memphis Depay.
The Brazilian believes that the new forwards will have to deal with extra pressure as they will be compared to Suarez.
"Barcelona are still searching for a new attacker to replace Luis Suarez. It would be nice to see them sign Memphis Depay who looks like a good player," Rivaldo writes in his column for Betfair.
"But it will be tough to find someone with the quality and fighting spirit that helped Suarez to become the third-best goal scorer in the club's history.
"I'm afraid it will be a long time before Barcelona can find a similar player who can finally make fans forget about Suarez.
"All the players who might come in as his replacement in the next few seasons will be compared to him which will add extra pressure on top of the pressure that already comes with wearing the Barcelona shirt."
After six years, 195 goals and 113 assists at Camp Nou, Suarez joined Atletico Madrid.
Ronald Koeman has confirmed that Barca is looking for a striker but with only three days left before the transfer window closes, it's going to take a miracle for the Catalans to sign someone.
