Saudi Arabia's excitement over the possibility of Lionel Messi playing in the country's Pro League grew further on Thursday (9/3) after it was announced that the Paris Saint-Germain superstar will visit the Arabian Peninsula country for the third time in in less than a year, at the end of this month.


The Argentine world champion will travel to the country for a holiday, as Saudi Arabia's tourism minister, Ahmed Al-Khatib, said: "I am delighted to welcome our Tourism Ambassador... and his family and friends this month... to enjoy our most beautiful tourist destinations, connect with our people and experience unique experiences!" Al-Khatib wrote on Twitter.


The news became known a few hours before the elimination of Paris Saint-Germain from the UEFA Champions League, after the new defeat (2-0) by Bayern Munich.


Saudi Arabia announced Messi as its tourism ambassador last year and the Argentine visited Jeddah in May, before returning in January to play in a friendly played by Paris Saint-Germain against a team of Saudi Arabian League stars, where they faced his great rival, Cristiano Ronaldo.


Ronaldo's deal with Al-Nasr has led to rumors of a "renewal" of his rivalry with Lionel Messi in the Saudi Arabian league after local media reported Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad's interest in the Argentine world champion.



Huge suggestion for Messi


Website "Saudi Sport" reported that Al-Hilal had already made a "huge offer" for him to join their team once his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires in June.


Al-Ittihad fans chanted Messi's name at a match on Friday and club president Anmar Al-Khaeli referred to Lionel Messi in a video last week, saying "God willing, the deal needs time and settlement".


At the same time, the Argentinian, former international forward, Ramon Dias, coach of Al-Hilal, told reporters: "Ronaldo's presence makes us believe that Messi can also come to Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabian football is growing significantly and seems capable of attracting the biggest footballers.'
