“I am almost 37 years old, this is the year I played the most times in my career. It was also the year I was most distant from my family. This award belongs to them,” a tearful Suárez said after receiving the trophy from former national team teammate Diego Lugano.

When asked about his future, however, Suárez did not respond. But he said he will remember not only Gremio fans, but also those of other clubs who respected him as an opponent.

“It is hard to see rival fans here applaud you when you play, and that did happen to me in some places,” Suárez said. “This is all about the player’s mind, it doesn’t matter how old they are. It could be Endrick at age 17, Hulk, Suárez, … The mindset and the commitment have to be there for you to play and do what you like.”
