- Saudi Pro League. Saudi Arabia announces the final Cristiano Ronaldo vs Messi showdown
- MLS. Busy 2024 looms for Lionel Messi and Inter Miami, and club is figuring out how to make it work
Just as we were starting to savor one more game between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Inter Miami comes out and debunks the news through their official channels. An announcement was made of an alleged friendly match between Inter Miami and Al-Nassr that was supposed to take place in Saudi Arabia in 2024. After the alleged scheduled game was announced, every single sports news outlet in the world made echo of this game that was supposed to be part of the Riyadh Season Cup in early 2024. But the MLS club sent out a press released for urgent divulging. They are denying any deal was made with Al-Nassr and denied owner Jorge Mas made any statements on the alleged scheduled friendly game.
Here’s the press release statement in full that was sent out to every news outlet on Inter Miami’s list of contacts: “Earlier today, an announcement was issued stating that Inter Miami CF is scheduled to play in the Riyadh Season Cup. This is innacurate. The release included statements attributed to team owner Jorge Mas. Mas has made no comments, publicly or privately, in relation to the preseason tour. Since Day one, Inter Miami CF has set out to be a global brand. To this end, we have been in conversations to determine our 2024 preseason schedule. We look forward to showcasing our players on Inter Miami CF’s first international tour which will be announced in the coming weeks.”
Are Messi and Ronaldo not playing after all?
We need to take a closer look at the statement released by Inter Miami CF. They are debying the statements made by owner Jorge Mas are true but they did confirm they are in negotiations with other clubs in order to play their very first preseason international tour. For all we know, Al-Nassr could be one of those clubs that are currently in negotiations with the MLS club. However, there has been no official confirmation the game is even happening at this stage. That’s the reason Inter Miami CF had to come out an deny they have a closed deal for this preseason game. Until we get firther notification this is the case, there is nothing true about the potential ‘Last Dance’ from Messi and Ronaldo.
