each team can only register up to 8 foreign players. This number will increase in the near future after the success of the Cristiano Ronaldo deal, according to ESPN.

In the January 2023 transfer window, Al Nassr was forced to part with Vincent Aboubakar to make way for Ronaldo. CR7 is the 9th foreign player in the Al Nassr squad. Therefore, the home club Mrsool Park crossed out Aboubakar’s name to register the Portuguese superstar on the competition list.

Transfer expert Gerard Romero said Messi has no intention of extending his contract with PSG. According to Forbes, winning the World Cup made Leo hesitate to sign a new contract. “El Pulga” is said to have other things in mind when considering the future

Messi’s contract with PSG is only valid until June 2023. Qatar owners plan to keep Messi from before the 2022 World Cup kicks off. However, the Parc des Princes home club has not reached an agreement with M10 after a long period of negotiations.

In the case of going to the Middle East, Messi receives a salary that can make him the highest-paid player in the football village. Ronaldo is holding this position after being paid by Al Nassr an income of up to 200 million euros per year.

Messi has a good relationship with Saudi Arabia. The 2022 world champion is the country’s tourism ambassador. Ibrahim Alkassim, general sеcretary of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation, admitted: “I make no sеcret that we want to welcome Messi one day. The idea of the Federation is to always improve football. Of course we do. I want to see Cristiano and Messi play here together.”
