Luis Suarez will leave Atletico Madrid at the end of the season after his two-year stay at the Wanda Metropolitano, the La Liga giants announced on Sunday. His second season has not delivered to the same level as his first, where his 21 league goals drove Atletico to the LaLiga title, and the club sees this as an appropriate time to part ways.
With the fans at Wanda Metropolitano paying homage with loud applause as he was playing his last home game for Atletico Madrid, the 35-year-old broke down in tears as he saw his dramatic two-year spell with Atletico come to an end.
Suarez started Sunday’s home game against Sevilla, which ended in a 1-1 draw after the visitors snatched a late equalizer. He could not grab a goal to mark the occasion after Atletico confirmed prior to kick-off it would be his last game for the club, and Suarez was clearly emotional when substituted midway through the second half.
After his spell at Atletico Madrid, Luis Suarez’s next playing destination is still a mystery
