Jorge Jesus, coach of the Saudi Al-Nasr Club, surprised his team’s supporters by revealing his vision for his professional future.
The contract binding Jesus to Al-Nasr extends until June 2026, and he has already begun to think carefully about the next stage of his coaching career.
The first thing Jesus, the coach who achieved historic achievements with Flamengo in 2019, aspires to is to take over the task of coaching the Portuguese national team after the end of the 2026 World Cup.
According to what ESPN reported, Jesus has his sights set on succeeding Roberto Martinez, the current coach, who is expected to leave his position after the tournament, regardless of the results that the Portuguese national team achieves.
So far, Jesus is considered one of the most prominent candidates to assume this position, along with Jose Mourinho, the current coach of Benfica. However, Jesus has a relative advantage due to his experience, in addition to the length of his compatriot Mourinho’s contract with Benfica, which extends until June 2027.
Al-Nasr represents an alternative plan: If Jesus is unable to lead the Portuguese national team, he is considering renewing his contract with Al-Nasr, continuing to work on achieving more titles, and supporting Cristiano Ronaldo in reaching his goal of scoring a thousand goals.
Renewing his contract with Al-Nasr will be Plan B if he does not receive an invitation to coach the Portuguese national team.
It has not been ruled out that “Jesus” will return to Brazil, as the third option in his future plans, with Flamengo being preferred as the first choice in his country, where he achieved many important titles, most notably the 2019 Libertadores Cup. (Arm News)
