About Al Nassr
Al Nassr were founded in Riyadh on 24 October 1955 by the Al-Ja'ba brothers, and Prince Abdul Rahman bin Saud later served as the club's president for more than 39 years. The player who defines the club arrived in 1977 and never left. Majed Abdullah spent his whole club career at Al Nassr, from 1977 to 1998, and scored 189 league goals in 194 league games, the Saudi top-flight record as of the end of the 2025-26 season. Supporters and the wider game called him the Arabian Pelé, and as of 2025 his 72 goals in 117 internationals made him Saudi Arabia's all-time leading scorer. He was just as deadly against the neighbours: as of November 2024 Majed's 21 goals in official matches against Al-Hilal made him the top scorer in the history of the Riyadh derby, with another Al Nassr forward, Mohammad Al-Sahlawi, next on 17.
Majed's last great night was the club's first continental trophy. On 12 April 1998 Al Nassr met Suwon Samsung Bluewings in the final of the 1997-98 Asian Cup Winners' Cup at King Fahd International Stadium in Riyadh, and the Bulgarian star Hristo Stoichkov scored in the 9th minute for a 1-0 win. Majed announced his retirement after it. Less than two years later Al Nassr were in Brazil for the first FIFA Club World Championship, and on 5 January 2000 they played in the first match in the tournament's history, against Real Madrid at the Morumbi in São Paulo. Nicolas Anelka scored the first goal the competition had ever seen and Fahad Al-Bishi replied from the penalty spot before half-time, though Real won 3-1. Al Nassr finished third in their group behind Corinthians and Real Madrid but went home with the FIFA Fair Play Award, and the trip gave the club the nickname supporters use with pride: Al-Alami, the Global One.
The league titles that followed came in tight, dramatic seasons. In 2013-14 José Daniel Carreño's side went 22 matches unbeaten and won the double, the Saudi Pro League and the Crown Prince Cup, beating Al-Hilal 2-1 in the cup final on 1 February 2014. Carreño had left by November 2018, and Rui Vitória, appointed in January 2019, finished the job that season: Al Nassr won the 2018-19 title on the final day, 2-1 against Al-Batin on 16 May 2019, ending on 70 points to Al-Hilal's 69, with Abderrazak Hamdallah scoring 34 league goals. In November 2020 the club moved into King Saud University Stadium, renamed Mrsool Park under a deal with the delivery company Mrsool. The move stirred controversy, because the ground had been home to Al-Hilal from 2018 to 2020. It became Al-Awwal Park in April 2023 after a deal with Saudi Awwal Bank. In May 2021 Al Nassr signed the Brazilian Talisca from Guangzhou Evergrande, and he stayed until 2025.
On 30 December 2022, five weeks after Manchester United ended his contract, Cristiano Ronaldo signed for Al Nassr. He made his debut as captain on 22 January 2023, playing the full 90 minutes of a 1-0 win over Al-Ettifaq, and his first goal for the club was a last-minute penalty in a 2-2 draw with Al-Fateh. Rudi Garcia left that April and became Napoli coach two months later; Luís Castro arrived from Botafogo in July 2023, in the same summer that brought Marcelo Brozović from Inter Milan for a reported €18 million, Sadio Mané from Bayern Munich, Aymeric Laporte from Manchester City and Otávio from Porto. On 12 August 2023, down to ten men, Al Nassr came from behind to beat Al-Hilal 2-1 after extra time in the Arab Club Champions Cup final, with Ronaldo scoring both goals and finishing the tournament as top scorer on six. In 2023-24 the club's 82 points, a club record at the time, were not enough against an unbeaten Al-Hilal, but on 27 May 2024 Ronaldo's 34th and 35th league goals of the season, against Al-Ittihad, broke Hamdallah's 2018-19 single-season record. Stefano Pioli replaced Castro in September 2024, and the 2024-25 AFC Champions League Elite run ended in a 3-2 semi-final defeat to Kawasaki Frontale. Jorge Jesus arrived in July 2025, and on 21 May 2026 Ronaldo scored twice in a 4-1 win over Damac that sealed the 2025-26 Saudi Pro League, Al Nassr's first title since 2018-19, beating Jesus's old club Al-Hilal on the final day.
