Unexpected twist. Messi in talks with Saudi Arabian clubs

Lionel Messi currently plays in MLS for Inter Miami, but there’s a real chance he could move to a different league — and possibly face off against Ronaldo.

Details: According to journalist Khalid Alzahraani, the Saudi Pro League’s star-player recruitment program has already opened negotiations with Lionel Messi. League representatives are eager for him to join them starting from the 2025/26 season.

Not long ago, Lionel Messi admitted he really wanted to return to Barcelona after leaving PSG. He parted ways with the Catalan giants in the summer of 2021, unable to extend his contract due to La Liga’s restrictions.

Reminder: Messi is close to extending his deal with Inter Miami. Negotiations are at an advanced stage, and the 37-year-old star is expected to sign a new contract, though final details are still being ironed out.
