The signing of Cristiano Ronaldo and the recent multimillion-dollar offers for other big stars such as Karim Benzema have turned Saudi Arabia into a great threat to the traditional big leagues. Yasser Al-Misehal is the president of the country's Football Federation and assures in an interview with EL MUNDO that we are only at the beginning of a firm commitment to turn his competition into a world reference.

He does not hide that his great desire would be to incorporate the Argentine Leo Messi into the competition, who yesterday played his last game with PSG.
