Jorge Jesus has been appointed as the new head coach of Al-Nassr on a one-year contract. He previously managed Al-Hilal, leading them to an unbeaten title in 2023-24 before being relieved in 2025. Jesus aims to assist Cristiano Ronaldo in securing his first titles with Al-Nassr, as the club has not won any major trophies since Ronaldo's signing. Jesus has an impressive managerial record, winning 62 of 80 matches in the Saudi Pro League, showcasing his capability in the competition.
"Without Cristiano Ronaldo, I certainly wouldn't be here," Jesus said. "The motivation is high. Al-Nassr needs to win titles, just like Cristiano Ronaldo, who has always won everything at the clubs he's played for. He hasn't won practically anything at this one yet, so I'll see if I can help him. We speak the same language, so it will be easy."
Jesus has won 62 of his 80 games as a manager in the Saudi Pro League, with his win ratio of 78% only bettered by another former Al-Hilal boss, Eric Gerets (82%, 23/28) among all coaches with a minimum of 20 games in the competition.
