The team will train in the evenings at the iconic Khalifa Stadium, before jetting off to Riyadh for their much-anticipated showdown with the Ronaldo-led Saudi All-Star XI, Peninsula Qatar reports.

PSG touches down in style

PSG has touched down in Doha, Qatar en route to Saudi Arabia, ahead of their friendly against a select side from Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal.

The star-studded lineup of PSG's travelling team includes World Cup winner Messi, Brazil's Neymar and Golden Boot winner Mbappe, during the team's winter tour.

According to Gulf Times, the Ligue 1 champions will use the opportunity to participate in a range of activities organised by the club's partners in the oil-rich nation.

Messi faces Ronaldo in friendly

Sports Brief earlier reported that Messi and PSG will play a friendly against a select side made up of players from Ronaldo's new club, Al-Nassr and their Saudi rivals Al-Hilal in Riyadh on January 19.

The Qatar-owned PSG will depart for the Saudi Arabian capital for the match at the King Fahd Stadium, which will see the two veterans renew their rivalry.

The GOAT debate grew during the nine years in which they came up against each other in Spain, when Messi was starring for Barcelona and Ronaldo for Real Madrid.
