Portugal head coach Roberto Martinez may move to Saudi Arabia after the 2026 World Cup.

Earlier, information appeared that the 52-year-old specialist does not intend to renew his contract and will leave the post of head coach of the Portuguese national team after the end of the world championship, and his new place of work could be An-Nasr, reports journalist Fabrice Hawkins.

According to the source, the management of the Saudi club, where Portugal national team star Cristiano Ronaldo plays, began negotiations with the Spanish coach even before the start of the World Cup.

As you know, Martinez has led the Portuguese national team since January 2023 and won the 2025 Nations League with the team.

As An-Nasr's coach, the Spanish specialist will have to replace Jorge Jesus, who decided to resign as coach of the Saudi team, despite achieving the championship title last season.

Let us remind you that the Portuguese national team started the 2026 World Cup with a draw in the match against DR Congo, and after the match Ronaldo found himself in the spotlight due to an anti-record.
