Former AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli is close to being appointed at Al-Nassr, reports insider Fabrizio Romano on social media.

The deal is nearing completion, with the Italian manager having accepted the offer and agreed to move to Saudi Arabia.

Pioli's last club was Milan, which he managed from 2019 to 2024. In the 2021/22 season, he led the Rossoneri to their first Serie A title in 11 years.

On September 17, Al-Nassr announced the departure of Luis Castro as head coach.
