Luis Suárez may quit Inter Miami for 2026 Libertadores with Nacional | OneFootball

The 38-year-old striker, who had joined MLS in January 2024, lost his starting position in Javier Mascherano’s team and will not remain at the club next season.

The Uruguayan forward Luis Suárez, who had joined Inter Miami in January 2024, will not continue as Lionel Messi’s teammate next season and is considering the possibility of returning to Nacional, where he was developed and had a brief stint in 2022.

After losing his starting spot in Javier Mascherano’s team during the Major League Soccer playoffs in the United States (he did not play any minutes in the final where Inter became champions and played 8 minutes in the semifinals and 14 minutes in the quarterfinals), the 38-year-old striker is not expected to renew his contract, which expires at the end of the year.

With 42 goals in 87 matches for the Herons, the Salto-born player, who will turn 39 at the end of January, is considering his next destination as his career winds down, and the Uruguayan side appears as a concrete option to welcome him soon.

Suárez, who played in Nacional’s youth divisions and is a club idol, had returned to the institution in mid-2022, after rejecting an offer from River because they had been eliminated from the Libertadores, to get in shape for the Qatar World Cup, and there he played 16 matches, scoring eight goals.

Later, the Pistolero wore the Gremio colors and proved his worth in one of the most competitive leagues in the world, as he scored 26 goals in 53 matches during 2023.

Now, after his time in MLS and reuniting with the Pulga, with whom he played at Barcelona, Suárez will have to decide where to end his career, and Nacional appears as one of the candidates.
