The legendary Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez revealed that his undying passion for football is the reason behind his decision to extend his contract with Inter Miami. Despite being 39, the forward wants to continue showcasing his skills on the pitch alongside Lionel Messi. This is reported by Goal.com .
Suarez, who was benched under coach Javier Mascherano last season, particularly during the MLS playoffs, emphasized that he accepted the situation professionally. According to him, although the reduction in playing time seemed confusing at first, he continued to work on himself.
Having returned to the starting lineup under interim head coach Guillermo Hoyos, the striker has recorded 2 goals and 2 assists in 7 matches this season. Suarez noted that these challenges sharpened his patience and restored his self-confidence.
The decision to extend the contract for one year signifies that the player is still capable of competing at a high level. Suarez added that the feeling of being upset by defeats and the joy of scoring goals remain strong, and playing alongside Lionel Messi gives him great motivation.
