Luis Suarez Joins Inter Miami On One-Year Contract

Suarez's latest move will see him reunite with his former Barcelona strike partner Lionel Messi as well as Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.

The 36-year-old was a free agent after leaving Brazilian side Gremio, where he scored 17 goals in 33 league appearances last season.

Suarez won the Champions League and four La Liga titles with Messi, Busquets and Alba at Barcelona.

The South American icon said: "I'm very happy and excited to take on this new challenge with Inter Miami. 

"I can't wait to get started and I'm ready to work to make the dream of winning more titles with this great club a reality.

"I'm optimistic about what we can achieve together with our shared ambition.

"I will give my all to bring joy to these great fans I've heard so much about while I wear Inter Miami colours, and look forward to reuniting with great friends and players.

"I'm also eager to meet my new team-mates and coaches."

Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham added: "We are delighted to have a player of Luis' quality and passion for the game join our club. 

"He joins a squad that is inspiring the next generation and we look forward to seeing him take to the field with both former team-mates and young players from our academy."

Inter Miami finished second from bottom in the Eastern Conference side of the MLS last season.
