Al-Nassr’s new plan: negotiations have started with Sérgio Conceição

One of the major clubs in Saudi Arabia — “Al-Nassr” — has begun a serious search for the head coach position. Having finished this season in third place in the national championship, the team wants to aim for even higher goals with a new leader.

Previously, it was reported that the club’s management officially approached Luciano Spalletti, the specialist who recently left the Italian national team, with an offer. He was offered a three-year contract with a salary of 18 million euros per season. However, the experienced Italian declined this offer. Because of this, Al-Nassr’s plans changed somewhat.

Now, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the club’s main focus is on Portuguese specialist Sérgio Conceição. The 50-year-old coach reportedly managed “Milan” for half a year last season and is open to new challenges.

Conceição’s successful history with “Porto” and his rich experience in Europe attract the interest of Al-Nassr’s management. It is emphasized that he has the potential to take the team to a high level. Currently, negotiations have begun between the club and the specialist, and a decision is expected in the coming days.

Considering that the team currently includes star players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mané, and Marcelo Brozović, it is clear that Al-Nassr wants to present itself as a strong competitor not only locally but also on the international stage when choosing a head coach.

Will Al-Nassr move to a new stage after Sérgio Conceição’s decision — the coming days will show. The Zamin.uz website will continue to follow the development of events.
