Inter was the great dominator of the regular phase of the MLS thanks to Messi, Suárez and two other former Barcelona figures, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.
In the playoffs, however, they were surprisingly eliminated in the first round by Atlanta United.
Another former Barcelona player, Argentine Javier Mascherano, will be Inter’s coach next season, replacing his compatriot Gerardo Martino, who resigned after the loss against Atlanta.
