If Lionel Messi resumed training on Saturday with Inter Miami, he was officially joined by Luis Suarez, his former teammate at FC Barcelona. The Uruguayan was very present.
A few weeks ago, the arrival of Luis Suarez at Inter Miami was made official. After Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets, it was therefore a third ex-blaugrana thief who joined Lionel Messi in his Major League Soccer club. And while the pre-season is about to begin for owner David Beckham’s team, a first training session took place on Saturday. In the presence of all former FC Barcelona players. And for Lionel Messi, it’s done, he shared a first session with Luis Suarez.
Several images and video sequences were broadcast on Inter Miami’s social networks. One of these videos focused a little more on the newest arrival, Luis Suarez. Since his departure from Barça, the Uruguayan striker has moved to Atletico Madrid, then returned to his training club CF Nacional before heading to Brazil and Grêmio Porto Alegre. Now engaged with Inter Miami, he will therefore return to his habits alongside “la Pulga”.
What return for Suarez?
Hampered by several physical problems, including a problem with his right knee a few months ago, “el Pistolero” is now thirty-six years old and is reaching the end of his career. It remains to be seen and known what his performance will be with his new club. One thing is certain, however, Luis Suarez is delighted to find Lionel Messi and his other former comrades from FC Barcelona. The smile he wore on Saturday in training proved it.
