Uruguay’s veteran striker Luis Suárez will again play alongside Argentina’s football idol Lionel Messi. The attacker, who turned 37 in January, signed a contract with Inter Miami for the 2024 season, as the club from the North American league MLS announced.
Suárez and Messi have already played together very successfully at FC Barcelona for six years. They became champions four times with the Catalan club and also won nine other titles, including a triumph in the Champions League.
Most recently, Suárez was active for Gremio Porto Alegre in Brazil, and he has also played for Ajax Amsterdam, Liverpool FC and Atlético Madrid. The 36-year-old Messi moved to Miami after his less happy time at Paris Saint-Germain, and a year ago he led Argentina’s team to their third World Cup title as captain.
“I am very happy and look forward to tackling the new challenge with Inter Miami,” Suárez was quoted as saying in a statement. “I’m really looking forward to seeing great friends and players again.” Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba were also teammates in Barcelona, Miami coach Gerardo “Tata” Martino once trained FC Barcelona.
