Interviewed on Spanish radio El Larguero on whether he and Messi would consider joining the MLS franchise, Suarez said: “With Messi in Miami in a few years?”
‘I hope…you never know what’s going on. We have a great connection. There is nothing better than seeing two colleagues happy outside so that they perform inside.
Suarez wanted to stay at Atletico Madrid for the 2022-23 season, but the club have declared their intention to part ways with the 35-year-old ahead of his final game.

Suarez wasn’t informed of his departure until the day before his last match. As a result, the Uruguay forward was left sobbing on the bench after being substituted off the pitch.
Speaking about the situation, Suarez said: “I wish [to stay for 2022-23], yes. Rafa Alique (Atlético communications director) told me the day before my farewell, that they were going to say goodbye to me.
‘I didn’t know anything. I am 35 years old and I was also thinking about my future. We had a meeting with the club in December, we agreed to talk in February and Alique told me that they were going to say goodbye to me and I said: “Well, at least someone from the club say something”. He too was supposedly surprised.

When asked if a move to MLS would be considered during the summer transfer window, Suarez said his priority was to find a club in Europe.
“No, it’s not in my head yet. My head is in Europe. Spain? Obviously one of them left a great legacy here, I’m very proud of the career I had here,” Suarez said.
“I have received proposals from here, but I am still analyzing them. I want to see the project to be able to compete at a high level.
Meanwhile, Messi has been linked with a move away from Paris Saint-Germain after struggling to settle in Ligue 1 this season.
Nonetheless, PSG are eager to keep the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner for at least a year as they plan to build the squad around him.
