Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, and Sadio Mane are set to team up to face Manchester City in a friendly match during the upcoming Riyadh Season. The All-Star Game is scheduled for November and will feature Ronaldo as captain of the Saudi Pro League team. With the launch of The Riyadh Season, the Saudi Arabian government aims to attract more tourists and international sporting events to the country. Concerts, athletic competitions, and cultural displays are just few of the attractions that will be showcased at the festival. One of the highlights of the Riyadh Season is the All-Stars' football game against Manchester City. Some of the most famous and best players in the world, including Ronaldo, Mane, and Neymar, will be featured on the All-Stars team. https://twitter.com/saudifootnews/status/1707320761776529777?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1707320761776529777%7Ctwgr%5Efddabf0c9929a60ed3a5a81bac805c5d3b7f335c%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.insidesport.in%2Fcristiano-ronaldo-to-lead-saudi-pro-league-all-stars-against-manchester-city-in-friendly%2F

Ronaldo, Mane, Neymar to team up

Reports indicate that Ronaldo, Neymar, and Mane will all play together in the upcoming friendly against Manchester City. All eyes will be on the three players since they are three of the biggest names in football. Ronaldo will lead a team of the league's best players in the Saudi Pro League All-Stars.

Inside Sports also confirm that Ronaldo will also be participating in another duty that day as a museum in his honour is due to open.

The Opponent, Manchester City

Pep Guardiola will take the helm of Manchester City, one of England's most successful clubs. The triple winner from the previous season will, however, be up against a strong opponent in the Saudi Pro League All-Stars in the next friendly. However, the Citizens are yet to formally affirm the match, due to their hectic schedule in November. Some of the league's best players, like Ronaldo, Neymar, and Mane, will make up the squad. The game is poised to be a spectacular show with top-tier football players from around the globe.

As earlier reported by Rocketparrot, Tyson Fury will headline the main event, taking on Francis Ngannou in a bout to claim the ‘baddest man’ on the earth.
