Gremio will prevent Luis Suarez from joining Inter Miami until at least the end of the season, denying the ex-Barcelona star a reunion with Lionel Messi.

Inter Miami are reportedly seeking to sign Suarez before the transfer window ends on August 2, and it has been stated that the Uruguayan is prepared to buy out his contract with Gremio in order to complete the deal. However, Suarez’s current contract does not expire until December 2024, and the Brazilian club has stated that they want him to stay until at least the end of the year, according to ESPN.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Miami have already signed Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba this summer, while also bringing in former Barcelona boss Gerardo ‘Tata’ Martino as their new head coach. The MLS club are reportedly still eyeing Suarez and Andres Iniesta to complete their collection of Camp Nou icons, but it now appears that the former will be staying in Brazil.

AND WHAT’S MORE: Miami freed up a spot in their squad for Suarez by purchasing an international roster slot from the San Jose Earthquakes, which could now be handed to Iniesta. The veteran Spanish midfielder is a free agent after leaving Japanese side Vissel Kobe, and it has been reported that he is in line for a two-year contract at DRV PNK Stadium.
