Manchester United fans believe Lionel Messi has received preferential treatment compared to Cristiano Ronaldo following his interview with Piers Morgan.
Former Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho 'targeted' for Cristiano Ronaldo reunion at Al-Nassr
17.04.2023 - 07:35 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is reportedly being targeted by Al-Nassr following Rudi Garcia's sacking last week.
According to CBS, the Saudi Arabian Pro League club are looking into the possibility of appointing either Mourinho or former Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane. The report adds that when Cristiano Ronaldo was signed, he was given reassurances that he would hold 'significant power' at the club.
This power is reported to extend all the way to the hiring and firing of managers. Following the goalless draw with Al Feiha on Easter Sunday, reports began to circulate that Ronaldo and his teammates had lost confidence in Garcia.

On Thursday, Garcia was fired by Al-Nassr and replaced by their U19 coach Dinko Jelicic less than an hour later. In a statement posted to Twitter, the club wrote: "Al-Nassr can announce that Head Coach Rudi Garcia has left the Club by mutual agreement.
"The board and everyone at Al-Nassr would like to thank Rudi and his staff for their dedicated work during the past eight months." It is reported that Al-Nassr are looking to make a marquee appointment to help grow the sport in Saudi Arabia.
As one of the most successful managers in European football, Mourinho certainly holds the ability to bring eyes onto Saudi Arabian Pro League. United's ex-manager worked with Ronaldo during his three year stint at Real between 2010 and 2013.
During that time, the pair won La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup. Mourinho was also awarded the title of World's Best Coach for the fourth occasion while managing at the Bernabeu.
