Al Nassr forward and Portugal national team winger Joao Felix has been named the best player of the 2025/2026 Saudi Pro League season. This was announced on the championship's official X social media account.
This recognition is of great importance for the Portuguese footballer. Throughout the season, he not only displayed consistent performance for Al Nassr but also became one of the most influential players in the team's title race. Felix brought great value to the Riyadh club with his creativity, quick decision-making, and goal contributions in attack.
Joao Felix appeared in 33 matches during the Saudi league season. In these games, he scored 20 goals and provided 10 assists. Such statistics are considered a high achievement for any attacking player. Demonstrating this level of efficiency under a new environment, strong competition, and high pressure once again confirmed his class.
Felix overcame serious competition to win this award. Among the nominees were his teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, Al Hilal midfielder Ruben Neves, Al Ahli striker Ivan Toney, and Al Qadsiah forward Julian Andres Quinones. Finishing first in such a list is not just about statistics, but a recognition of his impact and consistency throughout the entire season.
It was also a very successful season for Al Nassr. The team became Saudi Pro League champions with 86 points. Their main rival, Al Hilal, finished second with 84 points, while Al Ahli completed the top three with 81 points. The title race remained intense until the final rounds, but Al Nassr withstood the pressure at the decisive moment to achieve their goal.
Felix's contribution to this championship is worth noting. Together with Ronaldo, he was a constant source of danger for opposing defenders in the attacking line. Scoring goals, creating opportunities for teammates, increasing the tempo of attacks, and taking responsibility in big games made Felix one of the heroes of the season.
In short, Joao Felix has fully established himself in Saudi football. He won the title with Al Nassr, shone with his personal statistics, and was deservedly named the best player of the season. This season was not just a good period for Felix, but a major turning point that opened a new chapter in his career.
