Former Barcelona and Uruguay striker Luis Suarez has signed a one-year contract extension with Major League Soccer (MLS) club, Inter Miami.
Miami announced this in a statement on Wednesday.
“Inter Miami CF announced that it has signed legendary striker and 2024 team-leading scorer Luis Suarez to a contract extension through the 2025 Major League Soccer (MLS) season,” the club stated.
Suarez, 37, has scored 25 goals in all competitions since joining Miamia before the start of this season including 20 in the club’s record-breaking regular season campaign.
After winning the Supporters’ Shield for the best record in the regular season, with a new points tally record, Miami were eliminated from the playoffs in the first round by Atlanta United.
Since then, Argentina head coach Gerardo Martino has left the club with his compatriot and Suarez’s former team-mate at Barcelona, Javier Mascherano, appointed on Tuesday.

“I’m very happy, very excited to continue for another year and to be able to enjoy being here with this fanbase, which for us is like family. We feel very, very connected with them, and hopefully, next year, we can bring them even more joy,” said Suarez.
Miami’s President of Football Operations Raul Sanllehi said Suarez had shown he remains an elite-level forward and a key component in the dressing room.
Sanllehi said: “In 2024, Luis brought to Inter Miami all of the elements that make him one of the greatest strikers of all time. He performed at an elite level for us, and we’re excited to see that continue next season.
“Luis was not only our leading scorer this season but also a leader for the group. His impact cannot be understated.”
Suarez announced in September he was retiring from international duty with the Uruguay national team after scoring 69 goals in 143 games.
The striker played in Europe for Ajax, Liverpool, and Atletico Madrid and had a season in Brazil with Gremio before joining Miami.
