The team’s first international tour includes stops in El Salvador and Hong Kong in addition to the three-team round-robin Riyadh Season Cup.

Xavier Asensi, the chief business officer of Inter Miami, stated in a press release, “This is another major opportunity to create lasting relationships with passionate fans.”

“We are excited to connect with new supporters in Saudi Arabia, and also hope people all over the world will be tuning in to see a pair of dream matches like these.”

Over the course of their careers, Messi and Ronaldo have faced off more than thirty times. Between them, they have won thirteen Ballon d’Or awards; Messi leads that competition eight to five.

After leaving Paris Saint-Germain, Messi received an offer to play in the Saudi league, but he decided to sign with Miami instead, where he helped the team win the Leagues Cup and skyrocketed ticket prices.
