Luis Suarez's potential reunion with Lionel Messi at Inter Miami appears uncertain as the veteran striker hints at the possibility of retirement.
**What Happened?**
The 36-year-old Uruguayan striker recently concluded his stint with Brazilian side Gremio after they decided to release him from the final year of his contract. Suarez bid an emotional farewell, having delivered an impressive performance with 24 goals and 17 assists in 52 games this year. Initially expected to join Messi in the United States at Inter Miami, his future destination now remains uncertain.
**Suarez's Comments**
However, Suarez hinted that there are no certainties about his move to MLS or an extension to his playing career through 2024. He expressed, “I can feel pain, my body is speaking for me. I want to enjoy and then decide for myself after a long career. I need to rest, enjoy my family… then the destiny will know where I'll be in the future.”
**The Bigger Picture**
Gremio manager Renato Gaucho expressed the club's sentiments towards working with Suarez, acknowledging him as an all-time great. He said, “Are we going to miss him? Certainly, without a doubt, he is very loved by everyone. I had the pleasure of working with a great professional, one of the best in the world, fourth-highest scorer in the world."
**What's Next for Suarez?**
While there's uncertainty regarding Suarez's future, there's a possibility he could join Messi for the next MLS season. Messi, also 36 years old, is currently taking a break before setting out to add more major silverware to his collection, aiming to further solidify his status as the most decorated player in history.
