Paris Saint-Germain officially confirmed the friendly match itinerary: “Training and friendly matches will be held in Doha, Qatar, and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on January 18 and 19.” Paris Saint-Germain will start training in Doha in mid-January and meet with Qatari fans. Next, Paris Saint-Germain will go to Riyadh East China Sea to compete with Saudi teams Riyadh Crescent and Riyadh Victory for a friendly match. The match will be on January 19 at the King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh.
After Paris Saint-Germain confirmed the Middle East itinerary, the possibility of Messi and Ronaldo competing in the same city is also infinitely increasing. At the end of 2021, Ronaldo officially withdrew from the five major leagues after joining Victory in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The Portuguese superstar also won the highest annual salary in world football of 200 million euros. Although Ronaldo has not yet ushered in his debut after joining, he does not rule out the possibility of representing Riyadh in this friendly match. If Ronaldo gets the chance to represent Riyadh, he is expected to face Messi in 2023.
According to the itinerary, Paris Saint-Germain will depart for Doha, Qatar on January 17, and then go to Riyadh. They will play a friendly match with the All-Stars formed by Riyadh Crescent and Riyadh Victory. It is worth mentioning that this friendly match was originally scheduled for January 2022. The Riyadh Season Cup was postponed due to global environmental issues. Now it is officially confirmed that the Paris Saint-Germain vs Riyadh victory friendly match will be held at 20:00 on January 19, 2023, that is, at 1:00 am on January 20, Beijing time. Although the game was postponed, it has to be said that because of Ronaldo’s arrival, the attention of this game is completely different, and everyone is looking forward to Melo’s replay.
