Luis Suárez will play in the MLS, more specifically in the Los Angeles Galaxy, after the World Cup in Qatar. After joining Nacional this summer, he will end his brief return to the North American country. Weeks ago when he signed with the Charrúa club he had already agreed his landing in California and it was already strange that he signed a contract for only 5 months.

It is not the first time that the ex-Liverpool player has been linked with a move to the MLS, as at the end of last season he was very close to signing for Inter Miami. In any case Luis Suarez has closed his signing with Los Angeles Galaxy with whom he will sign for one season plus an optional one. This despite the fact that several Reds fans had hoped to see him play at Anfield again.

What was an open secret began to take shape in the last few hours after the Catalan radio station RAC1 reported that the striker will continue his career in football in the United States. The team in question is Los Angeles Galaxy, where the Uruguayan Martin Caceres (contract until the end of the year) and Gaston Brugman (contract until the end of 2025) play.

"We don't know yet. It's one of the options that I see very close, but I'm not thinking about it now. I'm thinking and enjoying myself at Nacional", said the player from Salta last week to the Spanish newspaper Marca. According to Ovación, the arrival of the Pistolero would be linked to the departure of the Mexican Chicharito Hernández, a franchise player with a high salary.

Luis Suárez to go to MLS

In mid-September the president of Nacional, José Fuentes, was very clear in an interview with Punto Penal (Canal 10) and remarked that the striker "is leaving" after the World Cup. "That's how we arranged it. He made a huge effort to come and every time I'm asked I say it so as not to generate expectations. Suarez is leaving, and he has also said so," he added.
