Al-Nassr is looking for a new coach. Cristiano Ronaldo has an important say here and apparently wishes to be able to work with Zinedine Zidane again soon. The commitment could take on unprecedented financial proportions.
After Cristiano Ronaldo is said to have brought down his now-sacked coach Rudi Garcia, the superstar now wants to choose his new coach – and is probably pleading for the appointment of Zinedine Zidane.
An offer made to Zidane and his entourage is being written about in Saudi Arabia. If that is true, everything that has gone before would be superseded. According to them, Zidane could earn 120 million euros in two years, so 60 million per season.
That would make the former world-class player the highest-paid manager in history. Marca, meanwhile, add that Zidane has not yet responded to this unbelievable offer in numbers, it is fundamentally questionable whether a move to Saudi Arabia would be interesting.

The plan is clear: Al-Nassr wants to bring Ronaldo and Zidane back together and build on the extremely successful time they both had at Real Madrid. At the moment Dinko Jelicic is taking over all coaching tasks on an interim basis, but a large-scale trainer is to be installed.
Due to Christophe Galtier’s upcoming split at the end of the season, the name Zidane has been heard around Paris Saint-Germain in recent weeks. He would like to “start again” and would like “a project,” said the 50-year-old coach in February.
