The Uruguayan striker will reunite with his former Barcelona teammates in Miami. But at 37, how much does he have left to offer?
Inter Miami have added another superstar to the fold. The announcement of Inter Miami’s latest signing means Lionel Messi will link up with yet another former Barcelona teammate at DRV PNK Stadium next season. Joining fellow former Camp Nou heroes Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, Luis Suárez has agreed a one-year deal with the MLS side, with the option of a further year.

Suárez, who turns 37 in January, has played for three clubs in that time, in three countries. As he has battled the inevitable effects of ageing, how different a player is the version of Suárez set for a Miami reunion with Messi?
