“Luis Suárez is a Gremio player, he has a contract. We understand the close relationship he has with Lionel, Busquets and Alba. They played together at Barcelona. There has been a lot of talk about Luis Suárez coming to Inter Miami. We have not had direct conversations with Gremio or Suárez. I don’t know how he (Suárez) might leave Gremio, but if he does, we are free to talk to Luis and bring him to Inter Miami. That possibility would be there,” Mas explained to The Athletic.
