“Why Lionel Messi Came to the Kingdom: Tourism or Signing for Al-Hilal Club?”

Al-Marsad Newspaper: The sports journalist, Moqbel Bin Judaya, revealed the reason for the arrival of the Argentine player, Lionel Messi, to the Kingdom, and whether his visit was with the aim of signing for Al-Hilal Club?

In a telephone interview with the “Al-Nahar Sports” program on Al-Ikhbariya channel, Ben Jadie said that Messi’s visit aims to promote tourism in the Kingdom, noting that the Argentine player had previously signed a contract with the Ministry of Tourism about two years ago to be its ambassador for tourism.

He continued: This is the second visit for the same purpose, and this is the context for which “Messi” came to the Kingdom.

The sports journalist pointed out that there are negotiations, and more than one session, and there may be an agreement that has been settled, commenting: But no one can confirm or deny, and I personally do not prefer to talk about these matters unless it is official.

“Ben Jadia” concluded, “We know that Al-Hilal wants to include Messi, and he may be the second deal after Ronaldo in marketing to the Kingdom and Saudi sports.”
