Luis Suarez has put pen to paper on a new one-year contract extension with Inter Miami, keeping him at the club until the end of the 2025 season.

Suarez joined the Herons in December 2023, reuniting with former Barcelona team-mates Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.

The Uruguayan registered 37 goal involvements (25 goals, 12 assists) in 37 games in all competitions last season, helping Miami to their first Supporters' Shield title.

In the MLS, only D.C. United's Christian Benteke (23) scored more goals than Suarez (21, level with Messi and Denis Bouanga).

The Herons set a MLS regular-season points record of 74 but were defeated by Atlanta United in the first round of the play-offs.

"I'm very happy, very excited to continue for another year and to be able to enjoy being here with this fanbase, which for us is like family," Suarez said.

"We feel very, very connected with them, and hopefully, next year, we can bring them even more joy."

News of Suarez's new deal comes the day after Miami appointed his former Barcelona team-mate Javier Mascherano as head coach following the resignation of Gerardo Martino.
