Lionel Messi was on the scoresheet in the 4-3 defeat to Al-Hilal

As a component of Inter Miami’s summer schedule, Lionel Messi will once more take the pitch alongside longtime adversary Cristiano Ronaldo in the Ballon d’Or and the Clasico. The team will compete in the Riyadh Super Cup when Al-Nassr faces Inter Miami.

When Messi competed for PSG in Saudi Arabia against Ronaldo and the Riyadh All-Star XI in January 2023, the two last faced off. It’s always entertaining to watch two of the best players of any era display their wildly disparate and amazing skill sets.

On February 1, Inter Miami takes on Ronaldo’s Al Nassr following their 4-3 loss to Al-Hilal.

Undoubtedly, the encounter will spark the “Messi vs. Ronaldo” discussion once more in the public eye, even though some people believe it never ended when Ronaldo moved from Europe to Saudi Arabia.

The following summarises the achievements and accolades attained by two exceptional athletes who are currently nearing the end of their careers. Messi, on the other hand, has played for Barcelona, Argentina, and Paris Saint-Germain, while Ronaldo has represented Manchester United, Real Madrid, Portugal, Juventus, and a “Riyadh XI” on the other side of the ground.

Al-Nassr most likely will give Ronaldo every opportunity to demonstrate that he is healthy enough to participate in the friendly match against Inter Miami. That being said, we won’t be able to confirm his availability until a few days before the game.

Although the severity of Ronaldo’s injury is unknown, it appears to be minimal based on the fact that he hasn’t been declared out. According to early rumours, he would require two weeks to fully recuperate; within that timeframe, he can return to action on February 1.
