Jorge Mas details after reported attempts by Inter Miami to reunite two friends.
- The icon of Argentina is in the United States
- Busquets and Alba joined him
- The Uruguayan striker is in Gremio
WHAT HAPPENED? The Florida-based franchise has been busy adding heavyweights to its ranks, with seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi being the most notable. They also added Barcelona stars Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, possibly with the Blaugrana and former Liverpool Suarez joining some familiar faces at the DRV PNK stadium. The Uruguayan veteran is in Brazil with Gremio, but there is speculation about a departure for the United States.
WHAT WAS SAID: Inter Miami owner-manager Jorge Mas has commented on whether a deal for the prolific 36-year-old striker, who previously played with Messi at the Camp Nou, can go ahead: “Luis Suarez is a Gremio player.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Regardless of what happens to Suárez, Mas believes that Inter Miami can already see his recruitment business as a resounding success, with the club generating buzz worldwide. He added: “We have been successful. The expectations are a little different, but we have achieved it. The fact that Lionel Messi is here, that Sergio Busquets is here and others are coming is that we have opened new chapters for this sport in this country. We have achieved it.”
