Barcelona Legend Crushes Lionel Messi Reunion Hopes as Luis Suarez Nears Inter Miami Move

Inter Miami has emerged as a haven for former Barcelona stars. Lionel Messi‘s arrival in the United States has seen multiple former Blaugrana stars make their way to Miami. While La Pulga is hoping to reunite with his former strike partner Luis Suarez in the coming days, a former Barcelona star has denied any chances of joining the MLS side anytime soon.

Inter Miami will hope for a fresh start to their MLS campaign after being knocked out during the league stages this season. The team is in talks with Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez over a potential move to the DNV X PNK Stadium. The player’s addition could be an enormous boost for the side, with Suarez posting some stunning numbers for the Brazilian side Gremio in his latest campaign.

Sergio Roberto is not interested in a move to Inter Miami

Barcelona icon Sergio Roberto has been a key name for the Blaugrana in the past five years. The player has been a cornerstone of the team, becoming a key name in the dressing room. With his contract running out, fans have been discussing Roberto’s future with the team. While the player has been linked with a move to Inter Miami, the Spanish full-back vehemently denied such claims in a recent interview.

Roberto stated, “With Xavi as coach, I feel comfortable. I have your trust. At the end of the season, if the club is happy, I will continue. I’m talking to Barça. At the moment, I am not going to go to another team.”

He then added, “Everything that is said about me going to Miami or Palmeiras. They are all lies. It is true that I would like to have an experience in the MLS in the future, but it is not the time for that yet. At the moment, I say that I want to stay at Barça.”

While Sergi Roberto may have said no to a move to Inter Miami, the side is still in pole position to secure the services of Luis Suarez. The Uruguayan striker becomes a free agent this winter and will be free to negotiate terms with the side.
