In a major MLS move, Luis Suarez is on the verge of sealing a one-year deal with Inter Miami, reuniting with former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi. The Uruguayan forward, currently with Gremio, is in the final stages of negotiations with Inter Miami, as reported by the Miami Herald. Suarez is expected to sign the contract after concluding his obligations with Gremio at the end of the Brazilian season.
This reunion has been anticipated since Messi’s arrival at Inter Miami in July. Suarez, 36, made a strategic move by terminating his contract with Gremio to facilitate the transfer. The deal, financed with Targeted Allocation Money (TAM), ensures that Suarez’s salary remains within MLS limits.
Looking ahead, Suarez’s focus shifts to donning the Inter Miami jersey and preparing for the 2024 MLS campaign, set to kick off in early February. The veteran striker joins Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba, forming a formidable Barcelona trio in the vibrant MLS landscape.
This high-profile transfer adds another chapter to the star-studded saga unfolding in the MLS, as Inter Miami continues to bolster its roster with former Barcelona luminaries.
