Luis Suarez Unlikely to Continue at Inter Miami Beyond December, Retirement Looms

Per Diario AS journalist Eduardo Burgos, Uruguayan legend Luis Suarez is likely to retire from professional football after his contract with Inter Miami expires in December 2025. Suarez, now 38, is contemplating hanging up his boots, thus ending what is a legendary career involving top clubs and international success. The South American star will not remain in Inter Miami for the next season unless something unusual happens.

Luis Suarez’s Career and Current Status at Inter Miami

Luis Suárez joined Inter Miami after a superb career in South America and Europe that comprised successful stints at Barcelona, Liverpool, Atletico Madrid, and Grêmio. Since signing a one-year contract extension on November 27, 2024, Suarez's displayed his experience and goal-scoring prowess for Inter Miami.

Beginning from the 2025 MLS season, he quickly made a mark, scoring goals and proving to be an asset for the team in both league and CONCACAF Champions Cup fixtures. Regardless of his contributions on the pitch, Suarez has experienced long-term physical issues, especially with knee problems plaguing him since he was at Grêmio.

Speculations about his future have been based on these troubles. At 38, his body has likely been broken by professional football's physical requirements and demanding calendar.

Speculation on Retirement and Future Beyond 2025

Though his contract expires in December 2025, a sequence of rumours points to him not prolonging his Inter Miami stint. The physical demands of professional football and his injury record have generated conjecture regarding the length of his career, as he will turn 39 next season.

Though he remained in excellent form in 2024, the next season will decide whether he chooses to retire or keep on playing. Suárez's international retirement in 2023 from Uruguay and his current emphasis on club football suggest that his career might be coming to an end.

Suarez's future choice may also be impacted by the club's strategic moves, including the arrival of new stars and the likely acquisition of other stars such as Neymar.

In other words, even if Luis Suárez will remain a priceless and active member of Inter Miami for the rest of the 2025 MLS season, trustworthy sources and fan conjecture are tending toward his likely retirement or exit from Inter Miami sometime after December 2025. Though his football playing days seem soon to end, his position among football's great forward players still holds.

Retirement from International Football and Legacy

After a 17-year career as the country's record scorer with 69 goals in 142 games, Suarez announced his international football retirement from Uruguay in September 2024. Highlights such as the 2011 Copa America triumph and playing in several World Cups defined his international career, besides controversies that always kept him in the spotlight.

Suarez announced emotionally that his last game for Uruguay would be a 2026 World Cup qualifier against Paraguay, emphasising that it was his decision on his terms, and not one he had been coerced into by omission or injury. He explained that he wanted to end his international career before his home fans, appreciating the chance his children would get to see his final moments wearing the colours of the country.

Suarez seems destined to leave professional football altogether as his deal with Inter Miami expires at the end of 2025 and his worldwide retirement lies behind him. His career balanced big ability with a keen competitive spirit; thus, his departure will bring the curtain down on one of the most prolific and enthusiastic forwards of his generation.
