Ronaldo-Messi to clash again as Al-Nassr to play PSG on January 19

Portugal star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo could face Lionel Messi in his first club game for Al-Nassr. Al-Nassr could meet Paris Saint-Germain in a friendly match later this month. Ronaldo also served a suspension before his expected league debut for Al Nassr but is expected to face PSG in a friendly match of a team made up of players from Al Nassr and Al Hilal in Riyadh on 19 January.

Ronaldo missed first two games for his new club after being suspended by England's Football Association for misbehavior with a fan after Manchester United's unexpected defeat at the hands of Everton in April.

“It [his debut] won’t be with the Al Nassr jersey,” Garcia was quoted as saying by L’Équipe. “It will be a mix between Al Hilal and Al Nassr. As the coach of Al Nassr, I cannot be happy with this match. For development, to see PSG, to see the great Parisian players, indeed it is a good thing. But we have a championship game three days later.

“In terms of scheduling, it could have been better thought out. But it’s not a big deal … We are in the lead, we are happy. It is a difficult championship to win, but we intend to do it.”

Ronaldo's move to Saudi Arabia is also similar to that of Pele to New York Cosmos. The Saudi club amassed more than 10 million new Instagram followers after signing Ronaldo.
