Inter Miami striker Luis Suarez has signed a one-year contract that will keep him at the Major League Soccer club for the 2026 season.<\/p>\n

Suarez scored 17 goals and provided 17 assists in 50 appearances across all competitions in 2025 as Miami won the MLS Cup for the first time<\/a> by defeating Vancouver Whitecaps earlier this month.<\/p>\n

The former Uruguay international, who will turn 39 next month, first joined the MLS side before the 2024 season, reuniting with former Barcelona team-mates Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.<\/p>\n

Although former Spain internationals Busquets and Alba retired after the MLS Cup triumph, Suarez has committed his future to Miami after briefly lapsing out of contract, joining Messi who signed a deal until 2028<\/a> in October.<\/p>\n

Former Liverpool forward Suarez, who also helped Miami win the Supporters’ Shield title in his debut season, has continued to court controversy during his stay in the United States.<\/p>\n

Suarez was handed a nine-game ban<\/a> for spitting on a Seattle Sounders staff member following Miami’s League Cup final defeat in August.<\/p>\n

He was given an eight-match ban by the English Football Association in 2011 after being found guilty of racially abusing Manchester United defender Patrice Evra, while he also served three bans – with Ajax, Uruguay and Liverpool – for biting an opponent.<\/p>\n

Inter Miami, co-owned by David Beckham, also signed former Tottenham and Real Madrid left-back Sergio Reguilon on a free transfer<\/a> this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Inter Miami striker Luis Suarez has signed a one-year contract that will keep him at the Major League…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":354563,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-354562","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-soccer","8":"tag-soccer","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/354562","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=354562"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/354562\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/354563"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=354562"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=354562"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=354562"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
