Messi understands his status as a role model, that is why he apologized for that action. The reach he has in public is one of his most valuable assets and that is why he is trying to protect his reputation or slightly restore it whenever needed. That is also why players like Ronaldo or Messi are of immeasurable value to the Saudi Professional League. Convincing those players to play for the Saudi clubs also means to bring in their followers from social media and that means hundreds and hundreds of eyes directed towards the SPL once these guys sign a contract.

If Messi goes to Saudi Arabia this would be much better for me than seeing him in MLS,not because MLS is not a great league and MLS is better than Saudi League but because we would be seeing another time the old duel of Messi vs Cristiano Ronaldo as I assume if he comes here he surely won't go to the same team which Ronaldo is already playing there.

If he gets about 500 million Euros also I believe it is in his right to join this league for the end of this career which everybody loves such amount of money in the end of their careers,very few people have been able to get such money,right now only Cristiano has done so and Messi will be the second to achieve it,of course Saudi has more money than the MLS and most likely he will come here.

Oh, boy! The drama, the suspense, the thrill of Messi's next move! Where will he kick the ball next, folks? On the sandy pitches of Saudi Arabia or the sunny fields of the USA? Sure, there are rumors flying about, whispers and nudges suggesting a move to the Saudi league. Some even say his recent trip to Saudi Arabia wasn't just for falafel and camel rides! But hold on to your horses, my friends! Could it be a cunning diversion? After all, who wouldn't want to see Messi weaving his magic in the MLS? Ah, such a dilemma, isn't it? To follow the money or to choose a comfortable end to an illustrious career?

There is lot of discussion whether Messi will enter the Saudi Arabia Pro League or not. As said his presence will sure be big thing for the league after Ronaldo's entry. Earlier Ronaldo made a statement, it is time to have good football in the Asian circle and he have come for that. As his words, after him more people have begun to watch football where cricket is dominant. Messi supporting the same will help in the growth of more footballers. The talk about Ronaldo could've never been this high if he continued to play for Manchester United.

I've always thought about something, when talking about CR7 I think he gets a lot of attention, it's like when talking about Messi at PSG, all the attention goes to him, so these players aren't going to be 100% all the time It is impossible, there will be moments, plays, or matches where these players are also wrong, and they have the right to be wrong, because soccer is 11 players, not 1 star and if they lose it is not the fault of that star, because where is everything the team? where is the technician? these things are what they have to evaluate.

Messi would undoubtedly be the new King of this League, for now the reign is held by CR7, in general the areas have been very happy to see CR7 in action on their land, as far as I am concerned, it is the land where they are, I think that the best decision for CR7 is that he left for this Arab football, in Europe he may have done badly, if Ten Hag, who for me is a very bad coach, made him look bad, then I think he wanted to be famous at the expense From him, these things are not good, but it is clearly seen to be so, I hope that Messi can reach Arab football and can be protagonists alongside CR7, even against his team.

It would be very nice if Messi would play football here, but where 1 sheep is over the dam, many will follow as the saying goes. I wouldn't rule out that, to be honest. But perhaps not all footballers are only after money. In this competition you naturally have little challenge from a sporting point of view, only the Asian Champions League could still be a nice challenge, but apart from that it ends somewhere I think. And Ronaldo and Messi face each other again in a match, when will we see side by side again?

Looking fwd for the official announcement
Messi did not visit Saudi without purpose. He had something on his mind and he took his family along. which obviously shows there is something going on on his mind.

You know, in the remaining 3 games, anything can happen. For sure, in football anything can happen. because, we are not only talking about data and statistics. therefore, football is very difficult for us to predict. each result, will be determined when the two teams play their match on the field. one mistake, can have an impact on the team's overall performance.
well, now we are talking about the opportunities of Al Ittihad and Al Nassr. these two teams, you could say, are still fighting for the pro saudi league trophy. only 3 points adrift of Al Ittihad, did not rule out the possibility for Al Nassr to shift the ranking of the top standings.

Well, now we are talking based on data and statistics. both Al Ittihad and Al Nassr still have 3 matches remaining, if Al Ittihad misses just one game. automatically opened up opportunities for Al Nassr to shift the top of the standings. although in the end the points were the same, Al Nassr had more goals than Al Ittihad. Now, we're referring to the teams they'll be playing against in the rest of the match. for Al Ittihad, their toughest opponent in terms of ranking is Al Ta'ee. because the other two opponents, such as Al Batin and Al Fayha were not difficult opponents for them to overthrow. now, we refer to Al Nassr's opponents. The 3 teams against Al Nassr seem quite tough for them, even though on paper Al Nassr is still superior. This week Al Nassr will host Al Shabab, which is certain to be a tough match. if, Al Nassr fell against Al Shabab. that means, the Saudi Pro League trophy is getting closer to Al Ittihad. well, roughly, that's from my point of view.

We can't be sure of the match outcomes. These days it is common to see more matches turn against the favourites. The matches left seems to be highly competing for Al-Nassr. Particularly the team Al-Shabab stands next to Al-Nassr in points table, so the match outcome can't be cent percent confirmed. Rest of the matches also tough, but Al-Nassr have got upper hands. Same as the efforts from Al-Nassr there'll be added efforts from Al-Ittihad to keep its position. Lets see what the outcome of the Saudi Arabia Pro League.

Even though we have no official statement or official comment from any party about Messi and his future with mostly things will be clear at the end of June or early July because right now mostly players are preparing for the better end of this season and after this we will have where is Messi going for his future with most chances he will not play in UEFA because he already announces not extended contract and his recent visit of Saudi Arab is also creating rumors about his possible contract.

But, this all is not clear as Inter Miami is also strong candidate for him mean now we have good competition between Saudi and Americans so where he will go it's not clear but most chances he will leave this all and settled in the USA because this is going to be good for him and his career last years instead of going into Saudi league.

I didn't say that he would go to Saudi league if he didn't apologize, I said he would be staying at PSG since he did. He could have still left and played at Barcelona, or mls, or anything else, doesn't have to be Saudi league, it just means he might have left, and even with no apology video he could have stayed at psg, who knows? But with it? I believe that he is going to stay and that is just my opinion. Maybe I am wrong, maybe he won't, and maybe he will leave.

After all, I am not his friend or family member, I might very well be wrong, I have been wrong before, I am just a human. All I am saying is that this is my opinion and this is what I base my opinion on, and I feel like I will be right, but I can't guarantee anything, maybe he will do just the opposite.

3 more matches left in the SPL before it really ends for the season, Al-Ittihad leads the SPL standings with 63 points, followed by Al-Nassr who is in second place with 60 points. The distance of 3 points is not a long distance, it is only equivalent to 1 match. But, do you think Cristiano Ronaldo & Al-Nassr are capable of winning the SPL title this season? Al-Nassr's remaining 3 matches are against Al-Shabab, Ettifaq and Al-Fateh.

It comes down to what Messi feels like. If he wants to play real competitive soccer, he can't go to the Saudi Professional League. He knows that he still has two years of high level soccer left at least. If he plays an offensive midfielder role who is more focused on providing assists than scoring himself, I think he can go for a couple of years still. At PSG when you have one player with the speed of Mbappe, you don't necessarily need another Mbappe, but one who knows how put Mbappe into action and that is what Messi is the perfect player for.

The SPL is about money only. If Messi feels the time has come to add another billion to his wallet, he will go to the SPL. Barcelona I agree, I doubt that that will happen. Now that he is so old , my dream to see him play for Manchester City together with De Bruyne won't become true

Even though Messi doesn't care about Cristiano, each fan of the two still really cares about the competition between these two great players. imagine how big the world's attention will be on the saudi league if they succeed in bringing in messi, that's right instead of choosing to play in MLS, playing in the arab league is far more profitable (at messi's age now, talking about money is a natural thing)

Messi apologize for a mistake he made. It can also be called a part of politeness. However, many questions have been raised around the apology. Since several issues are covered in this regrad.

Messi is playing almost at the end of his career. So his attitude will change a bit. His participation in the Saudi League would be a more appropriate decision than any other league in Europe. Although Barca tried to bring him back, it was nothing more than a show-off appeal. Barcelona can't afford to keep him because he left the club for lack of money he expected, so how will he return there again?. Moreover, they can't pay him more because they can't ignore UEFA's financial policy.

On the other hand, the deal with Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal worth more than $650 million has been called a rumor by many.
David Beckham and Inter Miami are still holding their hope. They think they will be able to take Messi to the southern tip of America.

Messi doesn't care about Ronaldo. The time is over when they fought each other in La Liga and you also seem to confuse something here. Messi apologized to PSG, but that has nothing to do whether he can go to the Saudi Professional League earlier or not. His contracts will expire either way. The apology was his approach to calm things down in general, but not because he thought that there is any advantage to him regarding a potential transfer to another league.

It is also not about "trying competitions outside of Europe". Not at all. Do you think he would go to the SPL for the competition? The biggest dream of Ronaldo and Messi is to win the SPL now, sure... Instead of going to sunny Miami and play in the MLS, they prefer to go to Saudi Arabia because they want to try something new. You can't be thinking that. It is money only, and nothing else.

Yes, maybe that opinion is a bit exaggerated, but it must be admitted that this problem will open up opportunities for Messi to join this league more quickly
Currently, Messi is an old player and his abilities are starting to decline not a bad idea if he wants to try competitions outside Europe moreover Ronaldo is already in this league so they can do it together.

You are saying that if Messi didn't apologize, you would be sure that he is going to sign a contract in the Saudi Professional League? Are you basing your conclusion only on an apology? I think that is a bit thin isn't it? If it was that easy maybe we should only see whether someone made an apology in a certain situation and then we can decide whether that player is going to sign a new contract or not!

I think Messi accepting Saudi Arabia's offer is not going to happen. The only reason I said this is because he apologized to PSG after visiting SA and that means if he wanted to leave, then he wouldn't care but he cared and wore a suit which is rare for Messi and made that video.

I talked about this before somewhere and I think that he is going to stay with PSG, I don't care what his father said or wife said or anything like that, dude will stay, that's what I will believe until he confirms officially that he leaves. If that happens then I will say that I was wrong, but until that happens I will consider him part of the PSG team and that's how the team should see him as well and try to keep him instead of punishing him and just get him to play.

Damac vs Al Hilal.

Tomorrow, Al Hilal will have his match which visits Al Majma'ah Sport City, Damac's headquarters. referring to these two teams, Al Hilal is far superior to the home team. very reasonable, because the two teams have a gap based on the quality of players and standings rankings. before three days ago, Al Ittihad had a home match against Al Ittihad and the match ended with a score of 2-2. now, Al Hilal will play his match against Damac. on paper, Al Hilal will win this fight easily. plus, referring to the H2H meeting of these two teams, Al Hilal always dominates the victory. unfortunately, in the first meeting this season the match ended in a draw with a score of 2-2. well, can Al Hilal win this fight, or will they have a little problem with fitness.

On the other hand, Damac is not the favorite team even though they are playing as the home team. Currently, Damac is ranked 11th. In last week's game, Damac lost with a landslide against Al read. and even if they lose, their position remains secure. well, the question is whether Al Hilal will play with his best performance, I'm quite doubtful. although based on the odds Al Hilal is far the favorite. well, the odds that Al Hilal has are @ 1.56. quite ideal, with opponents that are not too tough. my estimation, Al Hilal will overthrow Dacam easily.
