In football, as in life, time does not stop and some legends of world football are beginning to get older and face the fact that their retirement is near. In this sense, Luis Suárez shared a wish that involves his friend and teammate at Inter Miami, Leo Messi.

The Uruguayan in the press conference prior to the match of 'las garzas' against Tigres de la UANL for the quarterfinals of the League Cup, which will be played this Wednesday (August 20), stated that both will make the best decision for their careers, but he wants to retire together with the '10'.

“I would love to retire together with him because we had been talking for years about retiring together and the possibility may arise. It could be, but it depends on my renewal, on his renewal, and each one will make the appropriate decision at the time,” pointed out the '9'.

Likewise, the center forward dropped the possibility of extending his link with Inter Miami, which ends in December of this year. The player argued that he feels good physically and, if the MLS club wants it that way, he would have no problem stamping his signature on a new contract.

Will Suárez and Messi retire together at Inter Miami?

In this context, it is difficult to know, but even more difficult for them to coincide again in another club. Leo Messi also has a contract with 'las garzas' until December 2025, but apparently, the club would have already offered him a renewal,

Now it remains to be seen if they do the same with Luis Suárez. Only in this way could the charrúa's wish be fulfilled; furthermore, if the joint retirement is finalized, it is most likely that it will occur after the 2026 World Cup.

The captain of the 'albiceleste' aims to play his last World Cup, in search of that revalidation of what was achieved in Qatar 2022, where they were crowned as world champions in an unforgettable match against France that ended 3-3 in extra time and then was decided by penalties with a 4-2 in favor of the South Americans.

The Messi-Suárez duo, a formula for success that was born in Barcelona

It is worth remembering that the friendship between Messi and Suárez was born with the arrival of the center forward at FC Barcelona in the summer of 2014. Both players shared 6 seasons in the azulgrana team, where they left as legends of the club.

In the Catalan team they conquered together 4 Leagues, 4 Copa del Rey, 2 Spanish Super Cups, 1 Champions League, 1 European Super Cup and 1 Club World Cup. Now in Inter Miami, they were crowned as champions of the Supporters' Shield of the United States 2023/24.

Both Luis Suárez and Leo Messi are in the top 3 of the top scorers in the history of Barça. The Argentine is the first with 672 goals, while the Uruguayan remained in third position with 195 goals, just 31 goals behind the second, who is César Rodríguez.
