The Saudi Arabian club, featuring Cristiano Ronaldo, parts ways with Castro following disappointing league performance and cup losses.
- Luis Castro was dismissed after Al-Nassr managed only one win in the first three games of the Saudi Pro League season.
- Castro, who joined Al-Nassr in July 2023, failed to secure any major trophies during his tenure.
- The club finished second in the league last season, trailing 14 points behind rivals Al-Hilal.
