Stefano Pioli’s Job at Al-Nassr in Jeopardy Amid Ronaldo Issues
Recent reports suggest that Al-Nassr’s head coach, Stefano Pioli, may be on the verge of leaving the club due to a strained relationship with star player Cristiano Ronaldo. Pioli, who took over in September 2024, has guided the team to third place in the Saudi Pro League. However, tensions reportedly escalated when Pioli substituted Ronaldo during a match against Al-Kholood, leading to an angry reaction from the Portuguese forward. Given Ronaldo’s influential status at Al-Nassr, this conflict has cast doubt on Pioli’s future with the club.
In response to the substitution incident, Pioli faced criticism from fans, with some questioning his tactical decisions and calling for his departure despite the team’s 3-1 victory over Al-Khaleej. Supporters expressed frustration over the team’s performance, especially considering the advantage of playing against ten men.
Despite these reports, it’s important to note that information from sources like The Sun may not always be fully reliable. Additionally, Al-Nassr’s CEO, Guido Fienga, has previously stated that while Ronaldo plays a crucial role in guiding the team, he does not control the club’s decisions.
As of now, there has been no official confirmation from Al-Nassr regarding Pioli’s potential departure. The situation remains uncertain, and further developments are awaited.
