Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappe will be playing against each other in a pre-season friendly if the Portuguese decides to stay at AL Nassr. But fans would have loved to see Lionel Messi being involved in the match.

The possibility of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi playing together again in a pre-season friendly has suffered a setback.

The Argentine has been confirmed to leave the Parc Des Princes outfit at the end of the season after spending two glorious years at the club.

However, Kylian Mbappe will be on parade when Al Nassr takes on Paris Saint-Germain in a pre-season friendly game slated for Japan.

The Saudi Arabian Pro League side will also be playing Champions League finalists Inter Milan in their pre-season tour.

PSG and AL Nassr will trade tackle on July 25, and J-League club Cerezo Osaka three days later.

They will end their trip to Japan with a match with Inter at Tokyo’s National Stadium on August 1.
