Messi called time on his international career in the immediate aftermath of Argentina’s defeat to Chile in the Copa America final.
The Barcelona star was left in tears having missed his penalty in the shootout, but several high-profile figures in Argentina, including the nation’s president Mauricio Macri and Diego Maradona, have urged the 29-year-old not to go through with his decision.
“I’m sure that he will change his mind, but whatever he decides he will still be the best ever,” Suarez told Radio Tenfield.
“Knowing Leo, I’m sure it was said in a moment of sadness and helplessness.
“It would be a shame for football if he took this decision, but I'm sure he will reconsider and change his mind.
“It's a difficult time. Everyone has the right to make decisions and they should be respected.”
