Franco Negri has voiced his amazement by what he sees from Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez do in Inter Miami training sessions.
The Argentine defender has flourished in recent weeks in the left-back position with Jordi Alba out injured, with Negri recently admitting that he is learning plenty from the Spanish soccer legend in Inter Miami practice.
With the Herons winning every game Negri has started this season, the 29-year-old has played his part in Inter Miami’s stunning run of form in the last month, with Messi breaking numerous records and taking the Florida franchise top of the MLS Supporters’ Shield standings.
And Negri has now detailed what has amazed him about Messi and Suarez in training.
Negri blown away by Messi and Suarez’s connection at Inter Miami
Speaking to the press after yesterday’s training, Negri has revealed his amazement over how good Messi and Suarez’s connection is in training, with the pair having an almost telepathic link on the soccer field.
The relationship between Messi and Suarez both on and off the pitch has been influential in the duo succeeding at FC Barcelona and now at Inter Miami, where the pair will want to add more silverware to their respective trophy rooms.
Indeed, Messi and Suarez play off each other better than anyone else on the planet, and Negri has had a front-row seat to this greatness since the pair reunited earlier this year.
Negri said: “It’s crazy how they understand each other. It’s a pleasure watching them play and to see them motivated, for us, it’s very important. Having these kinds of players as they are and trusting them here will lead to big things”
Messi and Suarez are fueling the Herons’ MLS Cup bid
Messi and Suarez’s connection at Inter Miami is no real surprise given how brilliant the duo were during their Barcelona days, in which the pair won a historic treble alongside Neymar.
And at Inter Miami, the two attackers are the driving force behind the Herons’ bid to win MLS Cup, with the Florida franchise the clear favorite in part due to Messi and Suarez’s form.
With the pair impressing in training, it’s no real wonder why Messi and Suarez are thriving on matchday, with the duo showing no signs of fatigue or slowing down when together on the pitch.
