The former Uruguayan forward of Barça has the three defining characteristics of the Tricolor gaucho: grit, fight and delivery
Luis Suárez, who will turn 36 this month, will be presented today in Porto Alegre: he has signed for two seasons
The Gremio will present Luis Suárez today at a party, at the Gremio Arena, worthy of a world star. The gaucho club needed a coup de effect after spending a year in Serie B of the Brasileirao and He has found it with the hiring of a very charismatic footballer who had wanted to tie up for a long time.
At the gates of 36 years, the ex-Blaugrana has committed to the Immortal for two seasons, until December 2024. The key element of his landing in Porto Alegre, beyond the insistence of the Tricolor gaucho, has been the good references that Lucas Leiva has given him, with whom he has maintained a great friendship since they met at Liverpool. The midfielder, by the way, is going through a difficult stage due to heart problems, but his intention is to stay active.

Although Renato Portaluppi (perhaps the greatest idol in the club’s history) advocates and puts into practice a more technical football with which he won the 2017 Copa Libertadores, the defining characteristic of the Gremio has always been grit, fight and dedication, three of the Uruguayan personal brands, who will have the chance to play one of the hottest classics on the planet, the Gre-Nal.
The first commitments of the ‘9’ will be in the Gaucho Championship, before starting the Copa do Brasil and the Brasileirao.
