Ronaldo’s Boss at Al Nassr Fires Warning to Neymar’s Al Hilal and Co After 2 Straight Wins

• Al-Nassr manager Luis Castro has cautioned his opponents in the Saudi League
• The 61-year-old has warned that the best from his side is yet to come despite them already bagging nine goals in two games
• His next assignment is on Saturday, September 2, against lowly-placed Al Hazem

Luis Castro has issued a warning to Al-Nassr's rivals after his team secured consecutive victories in the Saudi Pro League.

The Portuguese manager, who took charge at the start of the season, has witnessed his squad maintain a steady resurgence after a challenging beginning to the campaign.

Their recent back-to-back triumphs over Al Shabab and Al Fateh have shifted the focus away from disappointing losses to Al Taawoun and Steven Gerrard's Al-Ettifaq.

With a total of nine goals in their last two matches, the Knights of Najd have climbed to sixth place, just three points behind the top four places and six points adrift of the early leaders, Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahli.

What's next for Luis Castro?

Next in line for Luis Castro and his Al-Nassr side is an upcoming away match against Al-Hazem, currently positioned 16th in the league standings. They have not managed to secure a victory in their first four matches.
