By signing the Uruguayan striker from Gremio, Inter Miami was able to bring Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez together for an exciting reunion at the DRV PNK Stadium.
Together, Suarez and Messi will light up the field for the Herons, realizing Suarez’s dream of playing with Messi one last time before retiring.
Suarez made the decision to start a new chapter after helping Gremio finish second in the Brasileirao Serie A the previous season. Several clubs expressed interest in the 36-year-old, but he finally decided to sign with Inter Miami, who needed a striker after Josef Martinez was released.
Messi guided Inter Miami to victory
After Messi joined the team in July, Suarez decided to follow him to Miami, rejecting other offers in the process. Messi was a major factor in making this happen.
Four important players from the Barcelona team that won the treble in 2015 have signed with Inter Miami, including Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.
Following the announcement, the fan base expressed how excited they were. Even at 36 years old, Suarez is still one of the world’s most deadly strikers.
Since coming to the United States, Messi has led Inter Miami to the Leagues Cup title and their first trophy. With Suarez joining the team, the forward from Argentina hopes to increase the number of trophies he has.
Leonardo Campaña, the 23-year-old striker from Ecuador, voluntarily gave up his number 9 shirt at the team in order to make room for Suarez.
In the latter half of the regular season, Campaña received a new contract as a result of his excellent performances for the Herons.
Inter Miami’s Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez are expected to light up the MLS
Together, Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, who now make up two-thirds of the formidable MSN trio with Neymar (who plays for Al-Hilal), had an incredible amount of success at Barcelona from 2014 to 2020. They won every trophy they competed for together.
After a standout season at Gremio, where he made 33 league appearances, Suarez moved to Inter Miami. There, he scored 17 goals and contributed 11 assists. He struggled with injuries, especially to his knee, but still won the league’s best player award.
With their wealth of experience and winning mentality, Suarez and Messi’s arrival at Inter Miami is expected to infuse the team with new life. After experiencing success in Catalonia, the pair is keen to repeat that victory in Florida.
Arguably, Lionel Messi is the best player of all time
Lionel Messi quickly became a legend in the team after being instrumental in Inter Miami’s Leagues Cup victory. Inter Miami’s heroic efforts were not enough to win a second trophy as they were defeated 1-2 by Houston Dynamo FC in the championship match. Due to difficulties caused by Messi’s injury, the team’s performance suffered.
Given his impressive scoring and assist history, Luis Suarez’s recent arrival at Inter Miami is anticipated to improve the team’s inventiveness and goal-scoring ability.
Suarez, who is well-known for his influential times at both Barcelona and Liverpool, left FC Barcelona under difficult circumstances, but he cemented his reputation as one of the best strikers of the modern era by playing a crucial part in Atletico Madrid’s La Liga victory in 2020–21.
Suarez triumphantly returned to Nacional, the Uruguayan club, where he began his career after departing Atletico Madrid in June 2022. His efforts, which included eight goals in 14 games, were crucial to Nacional’s victory in the 2022 Primera Division.
Later, Suarez traveled to Brazil, where he joined Gremio and helped them win the Gaucho 1 championship, adding another trophy to his collection. The 36-year-old came within two points of winning the Serie A championship with Gremio but ultimately lost out to eventual champions Palmeiras.
Luis Suarez’s impending signing will bring together two-thirds of the most famous MSN trio in football history: Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Suarez.
The group, renowned for their strong offensive play at FC Barcelona, created a lasting impression prior to Neymar’s transfer to PSG in 2017. The legendary number nine shirt, which is presently worn by Ecuadorian striker Leonardo Campana, is anticipated to be worn by Suarez.
