In a highly anticipated event, Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami is scheduled to go head-to-head with Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr in the Riyadh Season Cup next February, marking a potential final showdown between these two global football legends.
The eight-time Ballon d’Or winner, Messi, who joined the US squad in July, played a pivotal role in their championship run during the Leagues Cup against both US and Mexican clubs.
The upcoming match is expected to bring Messi, 36, face to face with Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d’Or winner and the 38-year-old captain of Portugal.
Having led Argentina to victory in last year’s World Cup, Messi has a longstanding rivalry with Ronaldo, adding an extra layer of excitement to this encounter.
Inter Miami has been designated as the guest international side for the tournament and will join Saudi Pro League teams Al-Hilal and Al Nassr in the Riyadh Season Cup in February.
The stage is set for a thrilling competition that promises to captivate football fans worldwide.
