While Ronaldo closes streets, what triggers Messi's visit to China

Lionel Messi has become the sensation of the week for his move to MLS side Inter Miami. The Argentinian player made the decision after talking to FC Barcelona and turning down a juicy offer from Saudi Arabia that made him one of the highest paid sportsmen on the planet.

Now the new player of the North American league is going to face a friendly match against the Australian national team in one of the territories where he has more followers and where he causes more commotion.

Cristiano Ronaldo is also on the road. He was seen these days in Madrid where there was total chaos outside his hotel. Hundreds of Real Madrid fans mobbed him to ask him to return to the club and retire in the most incredible way possible.

But the Argentine got more reactions from the Chinese population. No one conceived what the Qatar 2022 World Cup winner could cause by defeating France in a final that will forever be etched in history.
