What was an open secret has been confirmed. The Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez agreed to arrive at Guild from Brazil, a team that had followed him in recent weeks, and will be a new player for the Tricolor.
The Brazilian team waited until the last day of 2022 to formalize the new signing through their social networks. The gunslingerwho had decided to leave Nacional de Montevideo after an irregular transition, will play another two years in South American football.
“One of the best in the history of Uruguay, Luis Suárez, arrives at the Tricolor to continue his victorious career, now wearing our shirt,” he posted this Saturday afternoon on Gremio’s official Instagram account.
And completed: “Gunner, multiple champion, cup bearer and fighter! Welcome Luisito!”. Along with the post, the gaucho posted images of eastern forward with verses from Martin Fiero by José Hernández in the background.
Then, the 35-year-old striker thanked the fans of Tricolor through a video and showed himself with his new shirt with the number 9: “Hello to all the Gremio fans, I wanted to thank you for all the affection you have given me”, he began.
“Get ready to enjoy these two wonderful years, to try to achieve great things. I send you a big hug and see you in the next few days,” concluded Luis Suárez.
The World Cup forward is expected to join Renato Gaucho’s preseason squad on January 3.
Gremio, which fields Argentines Walter Kanemann and Franco Cristaldo, have just been promoted from Brazil’s second division. The Porto Alegre team is expected to fight again for a local title in the Brasileirao next year and qualify for international cups.
