Lionel Messi About Joining Saudi Pro League

“I was thinking a lot about going to the Saudi league. I know the country, and they have created a very powerful competition that can become an important league in the near future.

“As the country’s tourism ambassador, it was a destination that attracted me, especially because I’ve enjoyed everything I have visited there. Football is also growing in the country and because of the effort they are putting into creating a top competition. It was Saudi Arabia or MLS, and both options seemed very interesting to me.” Said Messi in December 2023 to TIME Magazine.
