The value of a ticket beyond imagination, which is that of the Al-Hilal Stars and Al-Nasr match against Paris Saint-Germain, the proceeds of which will go to the Ihsan platform, is 10 million Saudi riyals (equal to 2 million and 662 thousand and 396 US dollars).
This was announced by the head of the Entertainment Authority in Saudi Arabia, Turki Al-Sheikh, through his Twitter account, saying: “Praise God, and Lord, more and more”.

Tickets for the match were released on Sunday and Al-Sheikh said requests for them had surpassed the one million mark.
The Saudi official also announced an auction starting at one million riyals for a ticket “beyond imagination” for the match, which will give great advantages to its owner during the match. Saint-Germain confirmed on Monday that Argentina’s Lionel Messi-led team will play a match against a selection of top players from Saudi clubs Al-Hilal and Al-Nasr on the 19th of this month, days after Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo passed into the ranks of the latter.
According to an earlier tweet by Al-Sheikh, the “single” ticket will grant privileges, including attendance at the coronation and entry to the dressing room.
And he continued: “No one talks to me for less than a million riyals (about 267 thousand dollars)”, indicating that the entire proceeds will go to the “Ihsan” charity platform.

The match is attracting widespread interest, as it could see a clash between St. Germain star Lionel Messi, who won the World Cup with Argentina, and his arch-rival, Cristiano Ronaldo.
And the ‘Don’ had moved on to the Saudi winning ranks in a fictitious deal until 2025, estimated at €200m, originating from Manchester United, England.
