Real Salt Lake City: Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez are fit and ready to play for Inter Miami in the club's opening match of the Major League Soccer season against Real Salt Lake City, manager Gerardo Martino said.

The former Barcelona teammates will be the headline acts in Wednesday night's clash at Inter Miami's renamed Chase stadium in Fort Lauderdale, though they are not guaranteed starters.

"Messi and Suarez are ready to play, if 90 minutes are required, we will see this depending on the team's needs," Martino told a news conference.
