Cristiano Ronaldo’s Saudi Pro League could soon see his biggest rival join him, as Saudi club Al-Ahli has reportedly made a surprising offer to Lionel Messi. 

 

Messi’s current contract with Inter Miami runs until the end of 2025, but uncertainty about his future has stirred buzz after Al-Ahli’s approach. The news has given supporters hope that they might witness the two legends face off on the same stage again.

 

Cristiano Ronaldo is already a star player for Saudi club Al-Nassr and recently extended his contract by another two years. On June 26, Al-Nassr confirmed that Ronaldo will remain with the club until 2026.

 

Earlier this year, there were rumours that Ronaldo might join another team for the FIFA Club World Cup, but he denied those reports, which had disappointed many fans. Now, the effort to bring Messi to Saudi Arabia has revived those dreams.

 

Although Al-Ahli has confirmed making the offer, details about the possible salary or other benefits have not been revealed yet. However, it is expected that the Saudi club will put forward a highly attractive financial package to convince Messi.

 

Both Messi and Ronaldo are now looking towards the FIFA World Cup 2026, which could be the last major international tournament of their careers. 

 

If Messi accepts the offer to join the Saudi Pro League, it will create a historic moment for football, giving fans around the world another chance to enjoy the legendary Messi versus Ronaldo rivalry.
