Al Nassr appoint new coach who was recommended by Cristiano Ronaldo to come and take charge of the team
Saudi Arabian football club Al-Nassr has recently announced the appointment of a new head coach, reportedly on the recommendation of Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo. The choice is a result of the club’s attempts to improve its coaching staff and create a strong team.
Luis Castro, a 61-year-old Portuguese manager who is now the head coach of Botafogo, has reportedly just been named as the next head coach following Rudi Garcia’s departure. It is believed that Ronaldo played a significant role in facilitating the recommendation of Castro to Al-Nassr. Since joining the Saudi club, the forward’s influence has grown as a result of being given the freedom to make transfer recommendations and affect the team’s composition in accordance with his preferences.
Established in 1955 and situated in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Al-Nassr has a long history of accomplishments, having won more than 40 national and international titles. With a capacity of over 68,000, King Fahd Stadium, one of the biggest stadiums in the world, is where the team’s ardent supporters watch them play at home.
The club’s dedication to use Cristiano Ronaldo’s knowledge and ability to advance the squad is evidenced by his engagement in determining Al-Nassr’s future. Ronaldo has had a big effect on the Saudi team since signing in December 2022, both on and off the field. With a whopping 200 million euros a year in his two-year contract with Al-Nassr, he now holds the title of highest-paid athlete in the world.
