Cristiano Ronaldo could be joined by Club World Cup champion as Al Nassr builds a dream team

Al Nassr is currently undergoing a full-scale restructuring both on and off the field. The only constants at the moment appear to be Cristiano Ronaldo’s dominant leadership and a coaching change, with Jorge Jesus — who recently coached rivals Al Hilal — taking the reins. Everything else remains uncertain.

Names continue to surface as part of the club’s revamp, and the latest is Chelsea left-back Marc Cucurella, who has emerged as a potential target for the Saudi side. Al Nassr is reportedly preparing a lucrative offer that could be hard to turn down for the Spaniard, whose stock has risen significantly under new Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca.

Despite Chelsea’s deep roster, the left-back position is not particularly crowded, with Cucurella and Ben Chilwell as the only natural options. This contrasts with the club’s abundance of center-backs and midfielders, increasing the likelihood that Cucurella could be sold for the right price.

Al Nassr is also in talks to sign João Félix as they work to build a squad aligned with Ronaldo’s ambitions. The club is not just looking to strengthen the team but also to re-energize a fanbase that has grown frustrated with recent poor results — especially as Al Hilal and Al Ittihad continue to pull ahead.

Cucurella played a vital role in Chelsea’s recent UEFA Conference League and FIFA Club World Cup victories. Although he currently intends to continue his career in the Premier League, Al Nassr is expected to approach him with a compelling offer aimed at making him a key figure in the Saudi Pro League.

The Spanish international has recently bounced back after a rough stretch marked by injuries and criticism, re-establishing himself as an essential piece of Chelsea’s defense.
