As one of the best attackers in recent times, the Uruguayan has reached the top on multiple occasions; However, his name has also been constantly linked to inappropriate behavior for a soccer player and he has had to serve several suspensions throughout his career.
Several of these sanctions came this season with the Inter Miami and Suárez admitted in a recent interview with Sport that the MLS It has been more challenging than expected for him.
“I constantly think that I can be an example of rebellion, of resilience, of continuing to fight, of continuing to fail,” said the forward. “On the other hand, there are many areas in which I am not an example. And I accept it, I know it and I understand it,” he added.
The star, who lived his golden years at Barcelona, hand in hand with his still teammate, the Argentine Lionel Messiassured that he has had to face criticism from very early in his career, so it is not something new for him.
“I’ve always battled criticism,” Suárez continued. “I made my debut with Nacional at 18 (years old) and they criticized me for missing goals. That’s when I started trying to turn the page with the criticism. And then when I went to Holland, they told me I was fat. Later, at Liverpool, they attacked me for my acts of indiscipline. Later, at Barcelona, for going through bad streaks. At all stages of my career, I have always struggled with the same thing.”
A test in every aspect
The South American joined Inter Miami before the start of the 2024 season and became the new former teammate of Messi at Barcelona to be recruited by the institution, after the Spanish Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets.
“To be honest I was a little surprised by all the trips and matches, but that also has to do with the fact that I was at the club during a period in which we qualified for the CONCACAF Champions League, the Leagues Cup and the Club World Cup, always reaching the last stages. And that means a lot of travelling,” Suárez said about the impact he felt when signing for the pinks. “The trips are long, at least two hours flying, but we are used to it. There are no complaints, on the contrary, we try to enjoy what is left. Sometimes it seems that people underestimate us, but when it comes to competing, the results speak for themselves. Winning games is not easy, all duels are a challenge for us,” he concluded.
