Inter Miami is eyeing Luis Suárez as a reinforcement for their offensive sector following the departure of Josef Martínez. The Uruguayan forward has reached a verbal agreement to join the team starting January 1, after his contract with Gremio of Brazil expires. This reunion would see Suárez and Messi, who previously played together at Barcelona, once again sharing the pitch. The duo achieved 13 titles during their time at the Spanish club, including the 2014/15 Champions League and the 2015 Club World Cup.

Inter Miami, facing a year of quadruple competition, is considering options to strengthen their squad.

De Gea, who previously rejected an offer from the Middle East, is open to returning to Spain. Clubs like Betis and Valencia have expressed interest in his services. However, the main obstacle lies in his high salary demands, with few teams capable of meeting his previous earnings of £350,000 per week at Manchester United.
David Beckham, the driving force behind Inter Miami, remains optimistic about persuading De Gea to join the team and become Messi’s teammate. As time passes and De Gea’s need for regular playing time increases, a move to the United States under the guidance of coach Gerardo “Tata” Martino could become a reality.
While awaiting De Gea’s decision, the goalkeeper must focus on improving his recent performances. Despite his past successes, he has faced criticism for a series of errors during his final months at Manchester United. Notably, he was not selected for Spain’s World Cup squad and has conceded 21 goals in his last 45 appearances for the national team.
