Luis Suárez Extends his Contract with Inter Miami
Uruguayan striker Luis Suárez has signed a one-year contract extension with Inter Miami, keeping him at the MLS club through the 2025 season. The announcement was made by the club this Wednesday, confirming the continuation of one of its most important players. Suárez, 37, joined the team in 2024 on an initial one-year deal, and his impact on the attack has been nothing short of decisive.
The forward expressed his happiness after finalizing the renewal: "I’m very happy, very excited to stay here for another year and to keep enjoying being with these fans," he said in an official statement. Suárez, who shares the locker room with Lionel Messi, Jordi Alba, and Sergio Busquets, former teammates at Barcelona, became the team’s top scorer last season with 25 goals across all competitions.
Luis Suárez and Mascherano reunite
The news of his extension comes just one day after Inter Miami announced Javier Mascherano as its new head coach. The Argentine manager, also a former Barcelona teammate of Suárez, replaces Gerardo "Tata" Martino and will lead the team’s project heading into 2025. Suárez’s connection with the new coaching staff raises high hopes for the club’s future.
Raül Sanllehí, Inter Miami's president of soccer operations, emphasized Suárez’s importance to the team. "Luis brought all the qualities that make him one of the best strikers of all time. He played at an elite level for us, and we’re excited to see him continue that next season," he stated, highlighting the Uruguayan’s influence on the team’s performance.
With this renewal, Inter Miami secures the presence of one of its star players for another year as the club aims for greater success in MLS and international competitions. The experience and quality of Suárez, combined with Mascherano’s leadership, put the team in a strong position to take on the challenges of the upcoming season.
