Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami is gearing up for a thrilling international tour that will see them lock horns with Al-Hilal and familiar rival Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia early this year. The eagerly awaited encounters are part of the Riyadh Season Cup, a three-team round-robin tournament, marking Inter Miami’s debut on the global stage.
The Kingdom Arena in Riyadh is set to witness football history unfold as Miami takes on Al-Hilal on January 29, followed by a highly anticipated clash against Al-Nassr on February 1.

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.”

The duo, boasting an impressive total of 13 Ballon d’Or awards between them, continues to captivate fans with their extraordinary skills and competitive spirit. Messi, who recently received an offer to join the Saudi league after leaving Paris St Germain, opted to sign with Miami, where he led the team to victory in the Leagues Cup, catapulting ticket prices to unprecedented heights.
