In the video, Ronaldo is the leader of the Al-Hilal Stars team and Al-Nasr against Paris Saint-Germain

The Portuguese star, Cristiano Ronaldo, was chosen to be the captain of the Riyadh team, consisting of the stars of the Saudi clubs Al-Nasr and Al-Hilal, who will play a friendly match against Paris Saint-Germain next Thursday, as part of the “Riyadh Season” activities.

Yesterday, Sunday, the head of the Saudi Entertainment Authority, Turki Al-Sheikh, published a video clip of Ronaldo wearing the captaincy that he will wear on the day of the match, and he said in the video, “The promise is on January 19 with the captain of the Riyadh team,” thanking the captain of the Portuguese national team.

Al-Sheikh wrote in his comment on the video, which has garnered more than 8 million views, "The promise, God willing, on January 19, a meeting beyond imagination."

The promise, God willing, on January 19 … a meeting beyond imagination … and the team manager, Captain Khaled Al-Shanif, God willing, and the squad will be announced tomorrow by the coach and Khaled … I hope that day we will forget Al-Hilal and Al-Nasr for two hours and we will all become the Riyadh season … and after two hours we will stop the truce 😂🇸🇦❤️ pic.twitter.com/nttB07IgBb

This will be the first match in which Ronaldo participates in Saudi Arabia since joining Al-Nassr at the end of last year, and football fans are eagerly awaiting this meeting, because it will once again bring together Ronaldo and Lionel Messi with the memories of their confrontations when they were players for Real Madrid and Barcelona.
