After receiving a two-match suspension from the English Football Association, Cristiano Ronaldo has yet to make his debut for Al Nassr. However, a matchup between Messi and PSG could pave the way for Ronaldo’s fresh start since both teams will be playing each other.
PSG had already announced that they will play a friendly match against the top of the Arab Pro Leagues on January 19. Al Nassr and Al Hilal would create a combined team, and Cristiano Ronaldo would join them after completing his move to Al Nassr.
