RIYADH — Al Nassr Football Club has officially announced José Semedo as its new acting CEO, signaling a significant leadership transition ahead of the upcoming season.
Semedo, a former European professional footballer well-known at the club, takes on this top executive position after two years of valuable experience in various roles at Al Nassr. His strong leadership and character, both on and off the field, equip the Portuguese native with the necessary insight and executive skills for the role.
“We are committed to doing whatever it takes to create something remarkable,” Semedo stated in his initial comments after the appointment.
Al Nassr commended Semedo for his impactful contributions during his tenure, highlighting his profound understanding of the team’s culture, competitive goals, and operational structure.
The timing of this decision is critical for Al Nassr as the club seeks to enhance its domestic and continental ambitions following a high-profile season and the recent appointment of Jorge Jesus as head coach.
