Stefano Pioli, the 58-year-old Italian coach, has been chosen to take over from Luis Castro as coach of Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia.
According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano on Wednesday, Stefano Pioli is already on his way to Riyadh to sign a contract and be officially presented by Al Nassr.
At the end of last season, Pioli left AC Milan, with whom he still had a contract this season although he no longer managed the team.
Pioli has been a senior coach since 2003 and has spent his entire career in Italy, where he has coached Inter Milan, Fiorentina and AC Milan, among others.
It was at Milan that he won the only title of his career, that of Serie A champions in 2021/2022.
