A friendly match between PSG and the combined squad of Al-Nassr FC and Al-Hilal is expected to feature tackle exchanges between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
According to Marca, the friendly match will take place on January 19, 2023. According to RMC Sports, it was scheduled as part of Paris Saint-mid-season Germain’s tour of Saudi Arabia in 2022 but was canceled because to COVID-19.
Ronaldo will be presented as an Al-Nassr player for the first time on Tuesday after signing a record-breaking contract that would make him the highest-paid athlete in the world.
Many football fans feel that Ronaldo’s exit from European football will bring an end to his long-running rivalry with Messi. Messi is likely to sign a new contract with PSG that will keep him at the Parc des Princes until 2024.
Despite the fact that the 35-year-old has just recently returned to his club following the World Cup, fans may have one last chance to see the two great forwards go head-to-head. During their careers, Messi and Ronaldo have met 36 times.
