Luis Suarez sends defiant message after reuniting with Lionel Messi
Lionel Messi was recently re-united with former Barcelona teammate Luis Suarez at MLS club Inter Miami. The Uruguayan striker has joined the club as a free agent after parting ways with Brazilian club Gremio and has started training with the Herons.
Suarez has big targets for his time at Inter Miami, claiming he wants the team to win all four available trophies in 2024. The legendary Liverpool and Barcelona striker recently said (via ESPN):
"The best advice to give to the players is to dream and dream big. To dream that we want to win ... why not dream to win the four titles? It depends on us. We can speak about it, but we have to demonstrate it on the pitch with work, commitment, sacrifice."
Lionel Messi and Suarez shared the pitch 258 times during their time together as Barcelona teammates, combining for 99 goals. They tore apart defenses across Europe and won the European treble in the 2014-15 season.
