Messi and Ronaldo rejected to participate in "Visit Saudi"
The campaign aims to attract tourists to Saudi Arabia and show the country as a good destination.
According to Marca and The Telegraph,
Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the best players in the world has rejected the offer from Saudi Arabia to participate in their advertisement for tourism.
Juventus’ player was offered €6m per year to feature in commercial campaigns.
The aim of the campaign is to attract tourism to the Middle Eastern country as the Muslim country doesn’t have a good reputation because of violation of human rights.
, the Argentinian star of the Barcelona and 6 times Ballon D’or has also received the same offer from Saudi Arabia but just like his Portuguese rival, he has rejected the offer.
The campaign is named “Visit Saudi” and it aims to show that the Arabic country is an ideal destination for tourists and they want the help of the famous sports figures to help in this plan which is considered a long-term one.
