Gremio Has a “Problem” With the Transfer Talks Between Luis Suarez and Inter Miami
Luis Suarez, the Uruguayan striker who has been strongly connected with a transfer to Inter Miami, is apparently ready to rejoin with some of his old Barcelona colleagues, including Lionel Messi. But according to Gremio’s head coach Renato Gaucho, Suarez’s transfer rumors are creating issues for his present team. In an open conversation with the media, Gaucho said that Suarez’s situation is having an impact on the club, which is now third in the Brazilian Serie A and in the running to win the Copa do Brasil. Gaucho described the Suarez transfer situation as a “Mexican soap opera,” adding that Suarez “is now a problem and the president of the club has to deal with it.” They spoke over one another. However, I want to concentrate on coaching the squad as a whole.
Regarding the rumors linking Luis Suarez to Inter Miami, Renato Gaucho said, “Everything that has been said is true.” However, the Brazilian coach did state that he wanted to retain Suarez with the Brazilian team. “We really hope Suarez stays. I am aware of his and the club’s opinions on it. I can’t speak for him, however. As of right now, he has been speaking with the board and the president, said Gaucho.
Gremio’s offer to sell Luis Suarez is unambiguous. Inter Miami may sign the striker, but the MLS team will have to fully meet a $70 million release clause in order to do so. Suarez is frantically trying to relocate his base to Florida within the current summer transfer window, but the Miami-based team has another way to make the switch later this year. Suarez’s current deal calls for him to remain at Gremio until 2024.
As manager Renato Gaucho desired no distractions at this vital point of the season, Luis Suarez may lose his spot in the Gremio team as a result of his transfer-related upheaval. Suarez won’t play until he concentrates on Gremio. “I don’t know whether he will play in the upcoming matches if I see his mind is elsewhere,” the Gremio manager added. On July 23, the Brazilian team will play host to Atletico Mineiro in a league match. Gremio will play Flamengo in the Copa do Brasil semifinal four days after that.
