The Brazilian club's head coach has confirmed he will leave the club in December, and speaking ahead of the Herons' 2-2 draw with Charlotte FC, as quoted by ESPN, Martino confirmed the MLS side will revisit the transfer.

"Within our analysis of the upcoming season and the needs we may have, we have an analysis with Luis and an analysis without Luis. When the moment arrives to make Suárez's situation with respect to Inter Miami official, we'll be prepared to go in the corresponding direction," he said.
