Inter Miami ‘agree to deal with Luis Suarez’ as Uruguayan striker looks set to reunite with Lionel Messi in MLS

Inter Miami have agreed a deal to sign Luis Suarez, according to ESPN. 

Suarez, 36, is currently playing for Gremio and will sign a one-year deal with an option for a second.  

The deal means he will reunite will ex-Barcelona teammates Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba in MLS.

As noted by ESPN, Gremio manager Renato Gaucho confirmed last month that the striker would leave the Brazilian club in December – at the conclusion of the Brazilian Serie A season. 

Suarez had also previously acknowledged that the MLS side contacted his club in the middle of the year.

He signed a two-year contract with Gremio in December 2022, which now looks set to end early.  

Meanwhile, the Herons also released forward Josef Martinez at the end of MLS’ regular season.

The striker started 20 games for Miami up front, with Suarez now set to reprise his former role next to Messi.

The pair spent six seasons together at Barcelona from 2014-20, as La Blaugrana won four league titles and one Champions League in that span.
