Luisito, as he was fondly called, died on Sunday, July 9, 2023.

The former Inter Milan midfielder is regarded as one of the greatest Spanish footballers of all-time.

He is also the only Spanish male Ballon d’Or winner.

Inter Milan mourned their former star and manager in a statement released via the club website on Sunday morning.

The statement partly read: “Saying goodbye to Luisito leaves us with a deep melancholy: the nostalgia of his perfect and inimitable football, which in fact inspired generations, joins the memory of a unique footballer and a great, great Inter player.”

FC Barcelona also mourned the legend in a tweet.

Barca wrote, “Football legend. Barça legend.
253 games 141 goals 2x La Liga (1958/59, 1959/60) 2x Copa de España (1956/57, 1958/59) 2x Inter-Cities Fairs Cup (1957/58, 1959/60) 1x Ballon d’Or (1960) We will really miss you. Rest in peace, Luis Suárez Miramontes.”
