The Saudi Gazette Published in The Saudi Gazette on 01 - 05 - 2023

RIYADH — Argentine football star Lionel Messi has arrived in Saudi Arabia on Monday along with his family for his second visit to the Kingdom as Saudi Tourism Ambassador.
Minister of Tourism Ahmed Al-Khateeb welcomed Messi with a message on Twitter.
"I am happy to welcome Saudi Tourism Ambassador Lionel Messi and his family on his second vacation in Saudi Arabia. We are happy to share our authentic Saudi welcome with you all," he said.

Messi is expected to visit more tourism destinations in the Kingdom during his second visit. He toured Historical Jeddah and enjoyed the Red Sea during his first visit one year ago.
Just days before his arrival, Messi shared on his Instagram account a post showing a date palm groves.
