Al-Nassr Manager Pioli Faces Sack As Rift With Ronaldo Escalates

Al-Nassr manager Stefano Pioli has faced mounting pressure as his strained relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo worsens, fueling speculations about his possible exit from the club.

Al-Nassr’s manager, Stefano Pioli, is reportedly on the brink of leaving the club due to ongoing tensions with star player Cristiano Ronaldo.

Pioli took charge of the Saudi Pro League team in September 2024 after Luis Castro was dismissed. Since then, he has struggled to create a strong connection within the squad, leading to inconsistent performances.

Currently, Al-Nassr sits in third place in the league, trailing behind leaders Al-Ittihad by 10 points. The team’s recent form has been disappointing, winning only two of their last five league matches. This has raised concerns about Pioli’s strategies and decisions.

However, sources suggest that Pioli’s biggest challenge is not just the team’s performance but his worsening relationship with key figures at the club, especially Cristiano Ronaldo.

According to reports from SportItalia, there has been a growing dispute between the Italian coach and the Portuguese forward, creating tensions in the dressing room.

With speculation about Pioli’s possible exit increasing, AS Roma is said to be closely monitoring the situation. The Italian club is reportedly considering offering Pioli a role, expecting Claudio Ranieri to leave at the end of the current season.
