Ange Postecoglou has been announced as Al-Nassr's new head coach.

Jorge Jesus left his post at Al-Nassr, who are led by Cristiano Ronaldo, at the end of the 2025-26 season, despite leading them to the Saudi Pro League title for the first time in seven years.

And now Postecoglou is returning to management for the first time since being sacked by Nottingham Forest last October after just 39 days in charge.

That was the shortest managerial reign of any permanent Premier League manager to leave a club during the season, and he failed to win any of his matches in charge.

Postecoglou, who also previously ended Tottenham's 17-year wait for a trophy by winning the Europa League in 2025 before being sacked, has penned a two-year deal with the Riyadh-based side.

The Australian also won five major honours across two seasons with Celtic before joining Spurs, and had been linked with the vacant Scotland job.

But Postecoglou will instead step into the dugout for Al-Nassr, with his first game in charge set to come against Diriyah in the King Cup of Champions next month.
