Ange Postecoglou appointed as head coach at Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr


Former Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has been appointed the new head coach of Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr.

Riyadh-based Al-Nassr, who are captained by Portugal legend Cristiano Ronaldo, won the Saudi Pro League title for the first time in May.

Al-Nassr were previously coached by veteran Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus but the 71-year-old left the club at the end of the previous campaign.

Postecoglou has been without a job in management since he was sacked by Nottingham Forest last October after just 39 days in charge.

The 60-year-old Greece-born Australian has signed a two-year contract with Al-Nassr.

Postecoglou guided Spurs to glory in the Europa League in 2025 having previously enjoyed a successful stint in charge of Celtic where he won back-to-back Scottish Premiership titles.

He has been working as a pundit with ITV during the World Cup.
