Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez together at last! Inter Miami confirm signing with heartwarming announcement celebrating reunion with ex-Barcelona stars Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba

The Uruguayan striker becomes the latest high-profile signings for the David Beckham co-owned side. He will join the club as a free agent after he fulfilled his contract with Brazilian Serie A side Gremio. Alongside Messi, he also joins former Barcelona team-mates Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets at the Florida-based club.

Speaking to the club's official channels, translated into English, the Uruguayan stated: "I'm very happy and excited to take on this new challenge with Inter Miami. I’m ready to work to make the dream of winning more titles with this great Club a reality."

Messi and Suarez were team-mates at Barcelona from 2014 to 2021, where they won four La Liga titles, four Copa del Rey titles, and one Champions League title. Busquets and Alba were also part of the team for the whole duration as they played a key role in one of the best squads in club football history.

Suarez, who turns 37 in January, played for Gremio in Brazil during the 2023 season, helping the team win the Campeonato Gaucho and Recopa Gaucha while tallying 29 goals in 54 games.

It has not been officially confirmed by the club but Fabrizio Romano has reported that Suarez and the Herons have signed a one-year deal with an option to extend. He is likely to join the club for pre-season training in January.
