A Saudi real estate mogul, Mushref al-Ghamdi, has paid a whopping $2.6m for a match ticket during an auction to watch Cristiano Ronaldo face Lionel Messi in a charity friendly.
Excitement is building ahead of Paris Saint-Germain’s friendly in Riyadhon Thursday against a Cristiano Ronaldo-led Saudi All-Star XI.
The game will also mark the Portuguese talisman’s debut on Saudi soil since joining Al-Nassr on an astronomical pay package.
