According to reports, Messi’s team, Inter Miami, should have been the rightful owner of a significant cooperation agreement that Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr had inked.

The Business Times reports that Al Nassr Club and the Chinese entertainment and media culture organization GHY have agreed to work together to host a winter friendly competition. It is anticipated that the “China Tournament” will take place in this nation in January 2024.

The event’s organizers naturally sought Al Nassr to guarantee that superstar Cristiano Ronaldo would perform. There will be two friendly matches between Al Nassr and other teams chosen by GHY during the competition, which will take place in at least two cities, including Shenzhen, Xiamen, Haikou, and Hong Kong.

The Business Times source also states that GHY entertainment group will provide Al Nassr a cooperation fee of $10 million USD in exchange for the sole right to plan and profit from the event. It is anticipated that a significant portion of that will go to Ronaldo, who will serve as the event’s focal point.

The Chinese media claims that Messi’s Inter Miami was the original team that decided to travel to their nation for a friendly in the winter. Even an invitation to take part in a friendly tournament in November has been accepted by the MLS team. But the proposal was shelved, and now the Chinese are inviting Ronaldo’s Al Nassr instead.

The event hosted by GHY is anticipated to draw interest from hundreds of thousands to millions of Chinese people because to CR7’s immense appeal. Revenue from broadcasting, ticket sales, advertising, and other sources follow.
