MONTEVIDEO: Uruguay’s all-time leading scorer Luis Suarez will play in his fifth Copa America.
The 37-year-old, who plays for Inter Miami, was in the 26-man squad named by national coach Marcelo Bielsa on Saturday.
Suarez said on social media he was ‘very happy and proud’ to be picked. “Let’s go Uruguay, let’s go,” Suarez wrote.
Uruguay faces the host United States, Bolivia and Panama in Group C.
He won the Copa America in 2011 and was the player of the tournament. He was picked for 2016 but injury kept him on the bench, and played in 2019 and 2021 when they reached the quarterfinals.
