Luis Suarez nears the final whistle in Miami as the club looks ahead

Luis Suarez has said many goodbyes over the course of his career, but this one might be the most definitive. At 38, and following Inter Miami’s recent exit from the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, reports suggest Suarez may be approaching the last chapter of his time on the field.

According to available information, Luis Suarez is under contract with the Florida-based club until the end of this MLS season. Strong rumors indicate that Suarez will not be part of the team’s vision for 2026.

Apparently, Inter Miami plans to rejuvenate its roster while continuing to build around its marquee star, Argentine legend Lionel Messi. Reports from Spain suggest that unless something changes unexpectedly, Luis Suarez will bid farewell to Las Garzas at the end of the year.

New ventures on the horizon for Luis Suarez

On the other hand, inside Suarez’s circle, retirement is no longer a distant idea. He’s set to turn 39 in January, and while Luis Suarez’s scoring instincts remain sharp. Time has made its mark physically. That said, his legacy may not end on the pitch.

Just weeks ago, Suarez surprised many by announcing the launch of a new Uruguayan club alongside Messi. This ambitious venture could very well become Luis Suarez’s next passion project, shifting his energy toward a strategic and entrepreneurial role within football.

What’s still left to play

Despite the uncertainty about what lies ahead, Luis Suarez remains committed on the pitch. He started all four of Inter Miami’s Club World Cup matches this June and delivered one of the standout performances in a 2-2 draw against Palmeiras, where Suarez scored and assisted.

Now, Luis Suarez has a packed July ahead. With at least six MLS fixtures and a friendly versus Atlas on the calendar. In contrast to Messi and Jordi Alba—who are expected to rotate due to appearances like the MLS All-Star Game—Suarez is set to remain the club’s go-to man in attack while he’s still wearing the pink kit.

If this turns out to be the end of his professional career, Luis Suarez will leave behind a legendary résumé. He’s a historic goal-scorer, a symbol of Uruguayan grit, and a key figure in some of the most memorable moments with Barcelona, Atlético de Madrid, and the national team—not to mention the occasional biting controversy.
