Al Nassr Boss Luis Castro Demands 3 Players From Saudi Owners

Al Nassr was given a harsh reality check in their last outing as the side was thrashed 3-0 by Saudi Pro League leaders Al-Hilal. Cristiano Ronaldo and his men looked incomparable in front of the opposition with Aleksandar Mitrovic bullying the side. Following the defeat, Al-Nassr is once again back at the drawing board. However, it seems like manager Luis Castro has a plan in mind as he’s demanded the club owners sign three new players during the upcoming transfer window.

This is an enormous demand from Castro as Al-Nassr has already made some notable additions to their squad this season. The side spent big money to secure the services of names such as Sadio Mane, Marcelo Brozovic, and Ayermic Laporte. But looks like Castro is not pleased with the names at his disposal and has plans to bolster his squad in January.

Al-Nassr boss, Luis Castro, is not the happiest of men right now. Castro’s side was brought back to the ground as they were romped by a hungrier Al-Hilal in their last outing. However, it seems like Castro does not plan to sit and watch things unfold. According to reports, the manager is hoping to find suitable names that can help him bolster his midfield. Apart from the position, the manager is also considering adding more names to his attack. Last but not least, the Al-Nassr boss wants the club owners to secure the services of a new goalkeeper.

Based on the tweet, “Luis Castro asked Al-Nassr management to sign 3 players during the winter transfer period in the goalkeeping position, midfield position, and attack position.”

Cristiano Ronaldo and his men will be licking their wounds following their defeat against Al-Hilal. The side was bested by the better side, as the Blues have now found themselves in considerable lead. Al-Hilal is still at the top of the table but now has 41 points to their name from fifteen games.

Meanwhile, Al-Nassr, following their defeat, continues to stick to the second place on the table with 34 points to their name. The defeat has created a seven-point deficit between the first and second-placed teams, which could be a mountain to climb for Luis Castro’s side. It will be interesting to see if Cristiano Ronaldo can rally the troops and bag his first major title in Al-Nassr colors.
