The appearance of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo brings a lot of hope to Al Nassr. However, the team still lost a number of titles and dropped in the Saudi Pro League championship race against great rival Al Hilal.
Therefore, in the near future, Al Nassr is aiming to reshuffle its personnel and strengthen its management apparatus after experiencing a turbulent season. And the Portuguese football superstar is said to play an important role in attracting top players to the tournament and the team.
According to many sources, former Real Madrid defender Fernando Hierro has expressed his desire to join Al Nassr as Technical Director. This position was previously held by former Barcelona player Goran Vucevic.
Currently, Hierro is holding the same position at Mexican club Guadalajara. However, due to receiving an offer from Al Nassr, the team nicknamed “Chivas” is looking for a suitable replacement for Hierro.
The former Real Madrid defender joined Chivas in 2022 after a short period as coach and Sporting Director for a Spanish football team. In 2014, Hierro was also an assistant coach for Real Madrid, where he worked with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Hierro had a successful time at Chivas, helping the team reach the Liga MX Clausura final last year. However, an offer from Al Nassr with an attractive salary made him decide to change direction.
In addition, Manchester City superstar Kevin De Bruyne and Manchester United defender Raphael Varane are also said to be the team’s top targets. However, in the immediate future, Al Nassr aims to win at least one title this season.
Cristiano Ronaldo had previously promised that he would not complete his mission until he won titles with the yellow club.
