A final decision on Al Nassr’s proposed administrative restructuring remains pending, including details on the new executive framework and its implementation timeline. The concept predates recent developments but has re-emerged as part of broader efforts to reorganize the club’s administrative operations.

Leadership realignment under discussion

Club management is evaluating a revision of its executive hierarchy to strengthen both administrative and sporting functions. José Semedo, currently serving as chief executive officer, may be reassigned to an executive role directly tied to the football department. No indication exists that Semedo will depart Al Nassr entirely.

Ronaldo’s anticipated influence on sporting structure

Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to play an influential role in decisions affecting the club’s sporting structure. Semedo is regarded as one of the figures closest to Ronaldo at Al Nassr, increasing the likelihood that he retains a significant executive position despite the proposed shift.

Félix’s contract status confirmed

João Félix has voiced frustration over delays in extending his contract. Club officials informed him that a specific timetable for the extension process had already been established, consistent with the agreement between both parties. An automatic renewal clause in his contract will activate on the officially agreed date, extending his stay at Al Nassr for two additional seasons through 2028.
