Saudi Pro League Eyes World Cup Champ Lionel Messi to Join Cristiano Ronaldo

The Saudi Pro League is reportedly looking to bring Paris Saint-Germain star Lionel Messi to the country to join Cristiano Ronaldo, who recently signed a two-and-a-half-year deal worth $200 million a year with Al-Nassr. League officials are hoping to add another superstar to the country’s premier soccer league next summer. Messi’s current contract with PSG is set to expire this summer, leading to earlier reports that the 35-year-old was close to joining Inter Miami. However, Le Parisien claims that Messi will be signing back with the Ligue 1 club through the 2023-24 season. If Messi does decide to leave PSG, Saudi clubs are expected to make offers for him, with a similar deal to Ronaldo’s expected. Soccer fans in Saudi Arabia got a taste of what it would be like to see both stars in the country’s domestic league last week when they faced off in a friendly match, with Messi’s PSG team winning 5-4.

The Saudi Pro League is reportedly hoping to lure Paris Saint-Germain star Lionel Messi to Saudi Arabia to join forces with Cristiano Ronaldo, who recently signed a two-and-a-half-year deal worth $200 million a year with Al-Nassr. League officials are apparently not content with just one superstar in the country’s premier soccer league and are looking to add another big name next summer.

Messi’s current contract with PSG is set to expire this summer, which led to earlier reports that the 35-year-old was close to making a move to Inter Miami. However, a recent report by Le Parisien claims that Messi will sign back with the Ligue 1 club through the 2023-24 season, which would seemingly complicate any departure to the Saudi Pro League for Messi.

Despite this, ESPN reports that if Messi does decide to leave PSG, there will be several Saudi clubs lining up to make him offers. If that becomes the case, Messi could expect to earn a similar deal to the one that Ronaldo landed with Al-Nassr at the end of December. This would make him one of the highest-paid players in the world and would be a huge coup for the Saudi Pro League.

Soccer fans in Saudi Arabia got a glimpse of what it would be like to see both stars in the country’s domestic league last week when the two squared off in a friendly. Messi’s PSG club beat a Riyadh All-Star XI side that featured Ronaldo, 5-4, but both players found the back of the net in the match at King Fahd International Stadium. The friendly match drew a huge crowd and generated a lot of excitement among soccer fans in the country.

It remains to be seen whether Messi will decide to leave PSG and make the move to the Saudi Pro League, but if he does, it would be a major boost for the league and would attract even more international attention to Saudi Arabian soccer. The prospect of seeing two of the greatest players of all time playing in the same league is certainly an exciting one for soccer fans around the world.
