Inter Miami striker Luis Suarez said that he could return to playing for the Uruguay national team ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Mundo Deportivo reports this.

The footballer completed his international career in the spring of 2024, but now does not turn off his role, as the national team requires his help.

“I would never have been hopeful about helping the national team if they needed me, especially before the world championship. At that time I sacrificed my place to the new generation. I said what I didn’t say. I’ve already been in front of them, I’ve been in front of them,” Suarez said.

In the group stage of Emergency 2026, Uruguay plays against Spain, Cape Verde and Saudi Arabia. Suarez is no longer the leading scorer in team history with 69 goals..
