In preparation for next season after missing the MLS Cup playoffs in Lionel Messi’s debut season, Inter Miami are exploring potential signings. One player they are considering is a familiar face to Messi: Uruguayan forward Luis Suarez.

Since Messi’s arrival at the club, Suarez has been linked with Inter Miami, raising hopes of a reunion between the two former Barcelona teammates. While Suarez had previously signed with Brazilian club Gremio, the 36-year-old expressed his intention to leave the club at the end of the Brazilian season in December, a year before the end date of his initial two-year contract. During his time at Gremio, Suarez made 42 appearances and scored 18 goals.

Inter Miami manager Tata Martino said in a press conference: “As we look at next season and our potential needs, we are considering scenarios both with and without Luis.” This suggests that the team is actively exploring the possibility of Suarez joining their ranks.

If Suarez’s move to Inter Miami is made official, it would mark Messi’s third reunion with a former Barcelona colleague, following the arrivals of Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba in Florida earlier this summer. During their time at Barcelona, ​​Suarez and Messi achieved great success, securing four La Liga titles, four Copa del Rey trophies and one Champions League title.
