Ange Postecoglou has been appointed as the new head coach of Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr, signing a two-year contract. The Australian will take charge of a star-studded squad including Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Kingsley Coman and Joao Felix.
Postecoglou replaces Jorge Jesus, who left the club after leading them to the league title. The former Tottenham and Nottingham Forest manager had been out of work since being sacked by Forest last year, having also been dismissed by Spurs earlier in 2024.
Postecoglou was previously a leading contender to replace Steve Clarke as Scotland head coach, but the opportunity to manage at Al-Nassr proved more appealing. The club announced the appointment via X, stating: 'A new chapter. Mr Ange Postecoglou as coach of the first football team at Al-Nassr club.'
The move marks a significant step in Postecoglou's career after a turbulent spell in English football, and he will now work with one of the game's biggest names in Ronaldo.
