Ronaldo and Al-Nassr to take on PSG during summer friendly in Japan

0 85

Cristiano Ronaldo and Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nassr will take on Paris Saint-Germain during their summer friendlies in Japan.

The clash between Al-Nassr, who finished second in the Roshn Saudi League, and PSG will be held in Osaka on July 25.

However, there will be no head-to-head between Ronaldo and old rival Lionel Messi, with the Argentine set to leave PSG.

Messi was not among the players PSG used to illustrate the tour announcement on their website.

Last summer PSG traveled to Japan to play three local clubs and were greeted by sell-out crowds, even for their training sessions.

They round off their Japan visit against Inter, who play Manchester City in the Champions League final, at Tokyo’s National Stadium on August 1.

PSG clinched a record 11th French title last week as Messi scored in a 1-1 away draw at Strasbourg.
PSG are scheduled to play J-League club Cerezo Osaka on July 28.

City, Bayern Munich and Celtic have also announced tours to Japan this summer.
