The value of Al Nassr and Inter Miami since Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi arrived

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi gave a value of 190 and 97 millions dollars to Al Nassr and Inter Miami that they did not have until before 2022, both teams had a maximum of 50 million dollars in the months prior to the arrival of the two best players in history.

Al Nassr of Saudi Arabia opted for the Portuguese after his departure from Manchester United after the problems he had with Erik ten Hag and thanks to the support of the entire league he proposed a salary of 200 million dollars. Inter Miami took advantage of the fact that Messi was not having a good time at PSG and offered him a salary of $54 million per season plus variations in terms of image rights and shares in giant companies like Apple.

The main objective was to put these teams on the football map but they also managed to recover the investment quickly, by selling Cristiano Ronaldo shirts, Al Nassr managed to raise more than 80 million dollars, David Beckham did the same with Inter Miami by managing to sell 65 million dollars thanks to Messi, all this without counting on the advertising and marketing they achieved.

Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are a money-making machine, they managed to make their respective teams have a growth of more than 200% in terms of market value and both paved the way for more top players to agree to go play in two leagues that were used to spend the last years in soccer.

¿How much does Real Madrid and Barcelona cost?

Real Madrid currently has a value of more than one billion dollars, Cristiano Ronaldo's former team is worth 1.34 billion dollars as revealed by the Transfermarket portal. Barcelona costs approximately 875 million dollars and is ranked 7th in the world, Madrid is the first.

According to the same source mentioned, Al Nassr has an approximate market value of 190 million dollars, thanks to players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane. Inter Miami costs a little more than 97 million dollars also according to Transfermarket.

This growth was driven, in large part, by the arrival of Lionel Messi in 2023, which skyrocketed the sale of tickets, merchandising and broadcast rights. The MLS, which was already projected as a growing league, has capitalized on the signing of the Argentine star to attract greater international attention.

Al Nassr, for its part, has been key in Saudi Arabia's effort to make its league an attractive destination for high-profile players. The Saudi league, with the financial support of the government, is betting on competing with the major European leagues, which could make its international projection continue to increase in the coming years.
