At the age of 7, Inter Miami’s honed his soccer skills on the streets of Montevideo, Uruguay, playing with his brothers Paolo, Maximiliano, and Diego. Three of the former street soccer stars would later embark on a professional soccer career. While Luis had notable spells in various renowned clubs such as Ajax, Liverpool, FC Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid, the three siblings failed to replicate their brother’s success, falling short of representing prominent European clubs. Let’s discover how their soccer careers have unfolded.
Notably, Suarez’s older brother, Paolo, played for several clubs in Uruguay, Guatemala, and El Salvador before retiring in 2018. Maximiliano, who is a year younger than the Inter Miami star, hung up his boots in 2016, while Diego’s story is also quite similar. Here’s an in-depth look into their careers.
Paolo Suarez commenced his soccer journey at the age of 16, playing for Basanez, a second-tier amateur club in Uruguay. Paolo later spent a significant portion of his successful years on loan at the Guatemalan club, Comunicaciones, from his parent club AD Isidro Metapan in El Salvador. He achieved five domestic titles with the club and netted 22 goals from 22 appearances. Luis Suarez’s older brother retired in 2018 while playing for El Salvador’s AD Isidro Metapan, having made 21 appearances and scored four goals for the club. He also represented Uruguay’s U-20 side but never made it to the senior national team.
Maximiliano Suarez’s soccer career was not as extensive as Paolo and Luis Suarez’s. He played for lower division clubs in Uruguay, namely Huracan and Central Espanol. He donned the Huracan jersey on three occasions but failed to find the back of the net. Additionally, he made a solitary appearance for Central Espanol without scoring a goal. Similar to the Inter Miami striker, both his brothers operated as center-forwards.
The youngest of the Suarez brothers, Diego, had a career trajectory similar to Maximiliano’s. He also played for Uruguayan clubs and retired in 2017. Due to their lack of prominence, fans have jokingly claimed that Luis Suarez is a sibling of the hosts of the Property Brothers show, Jonathan and Drew Scott.
During the 2018 FIFA World Cup, fans noticed the striking resemblance between Luis Suarez and the twin brothers Jonathan and Drew Scott, who host the Property Brothers show. Many of them asserted that Suarez was the missing fourth brother of Jonathan and Drew Scott. In fact, fans even edited and incorporated the image of the Uruguayan striker into a picture of the three Scott brothers. This became an internet sensation after Jonathan Scott himself shared the picture on his Twitter account. “Hold up… I think everybody may be right,” Jonathan Scott captioned his tweet.
Although the Suarez brothers have no familial connection to the Scott brothers, they all share a commonality. It is their passion and profession that has brought these brothers together. While real estate has fueled the Scott brothers’ endeavors, soccer has united Luis, Paolo, and Maximiliano in the Suarez household. What are your thoughts on the Suarez brothers?
