The American team, DC United, is putting the final touches on its plans to conduct part of its preparatory camp for the next football season in Saudi Arabia, according to what knowledgeable people revealed to the newspaper “Washington Post“.
DC United, which plays in the American Football League, will join Inter Miami and its Argentine star, Lionel Messi, to hold a training camp and exhibition matches in the Kingdom.
A person familiar with the trip arrangements revealed that it is possible that the two teams’ visits will coincide, but they will not play a direct match.
Team officials declined to comment on the report, according to the Washington Post.
United spent the majority of its previous training camps in Southern California, and is expected to enter the competition this year, undergoing preparations in Saudi Arabia before moving to South Florida to continue its preparations for its opening match, which will be held on February 24.
Inter Miami announced its plans for Saudi Arabia on December 11, revealing its participation in the Riyadh Season Cup alongside the Saudi clubs Al Hilal and Al Nassr in the Riyadh Season Cup.
Messi and his teammates will play two friendly matches in Saudi Arabia, facing Al-Nassr and its Portuguese star, Cristiano Ronaldo, in a match that the organizers called “The Last Dance” and Al-Hilal (between January 29 and February 1), before traveling to Hong Kong and Tokyo.
According to the Washington Post, it is not clear how many matches United will play and who they will face, but given the distance traveled, the newspaper says it is likely that they will play two or three matches.
