The Saudi Pro League is slowly gearing up for a new season, and some fresh faces are already starting to appear across teams. Al Nassr, a perennial title contender, have appointed Jorge Jesus as head coach — and Cristiano Ronaldo wasted no time in welcoming him.
As is often the case with the Portuguese star, his reactions to certain events are usually shared through his social media, where CR7 is followed by millions of fans around the world.
This time, through his official Instagram account, the forward gave a warm welcome to his new coach with a brief two-word message in Portuguese: “Bem-vindo Mister (Welcome Coach),“ tagging Jorge Jesus’ account.
It’s worth noting that both Cristiano Ronaldo and the former Al Hilal coach were born in Portugal and share a connection with Sporting CP.

A major point of focus will be the arrival of Jorge Jesus as its new head coach. Known for his attacking style and ability to maximize team performance, the Portuguese manager will be tasked with elevating Al Nassr‘s level and guiding them to success.
His extensive experience in top leagues and understanding of offensive football will be key in their bid to dethrone the current champions and clinch the league title.
For Cristiano Ronaldo, this season offers another opportunity to achieve a goal that has eluded him since arriving in Saudi Arabia: winning the domestic league title for the first time.
