David Beckham's Inter Miami plan dealt first blow which could block Lionel Messi transfer

Ex-Barcelona forward Luis Suarez has signed for Brazil side Gremio on a two-year deal.

The 35-year-old was heavily linked with a move to David Beckham's Inter Miami in 2023 but Suarez has put pen to paper on a switch nearer to his homeland instead. According to GOAL, the Uruguayan reportedly rejected offers from Saudi Arabia and MLS to join Gremio following a short stint at Nacional.

This has put a slight dent in Beckham's supposed plan to reunite three former Barcelona stars in the form of Suarez, Cesc Fabregas and Lionel Messi, as per the Times back in November. The report claimed that Messi was on the verge of sealing a blockbuster move to Inter Miami, while Beckham was eying up Fabregas and Suarez.
