Luis Suarez has dismissed speculation that he is going to join Lionel Messi at Inter Miami in Major League Soccer, saying he is very happy at Gremio. The Uruguayan only joined the Brazilian club at the start of the year, signing from Nacional in his home country, inking a two-year contract in the process. It has been a successful spell in Brazil so far for the veteran, scoring 14 goals in 25 games and already winning the Recopa Gaúcha and Campeonato Gaúcho with Gremio. However, after it was revealed this week that Messi will be joining Inter Miami, his former Barcelona teammate was also linked with a move to Florida. The 36-year-old former Liverpool star has completely dismissed the speculation, though, saying he intends to see out his contract at Gremio. ‘This is false, it is impossible,’ Suarez told Uruguayan publication El Observador. ‘I am very happy at Gremio and I have a contract until 2024.’
In a joint interview with Mundo Deportivo and Sport this week, Messi confirmed his intention to move to Inter Miami this summer after an emotional return to Barcelona proved impossible. ‘I made the decision that I’m going to go to Miami,’ he said. ‘I still haven’t closed it one hundred per cent. I’m missing some things but we decided to continue on the path. If the Barcelona thing didn’t work out, I wanted to leave Europe, get out of the spotlight and think more for my family. I had offers from other European teams but I didn’t even evaluate them because my idea was to go to Barcelona and, if that didn’t come about, then leaving European football after winning the World Cup was what I needed.

I am also in a moment where I want to get out of focus a bit, think more about my family. I spent two years at a family level that was so bad that I didn’t enjoy it. I had the month that was spectacular for me for having won the World Cup, but removing that was a difficult stage for me.’
