When Luis Suarez planned to retire alongside Lionel Messi
Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi were teammates at Barcelona. They played 258 games together and combined for 99 goals. Messi and Suarez formed a fearsome attacking trio, popularly known as the 'MSN', alongside Neymar.
Suarez previously said on multiple occasions that he wanted to play alongside Messi again before ending his career. He reiterated in June (via Albicleste Talk):
“We also agreed about it with Neymar. We hope to spend the last days of our career in the same club. Purely enjoy the joy of football and play football as we like and retire together. I dont know abour Neymar, but Messi and I will definitely be there together."
In January, Suarez said:
"Messi and I ending our careers together? We have been thinking about it since 2018. Leo and I planned our whole life together. We wanted to retire at Barca, and then play one more year, but in MLS. ... Football changes. I left Barca, then he left."
Messi and Suarez were not only great teammates on the pitch but shared a very cordial bond off the pitch, too. The pair's recent Instagram exchange displayed the friendship they share.
