Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus will continue to manage Saudi club Al-Hilal.
The club's official website announced the extension of Jesus's contract until the summer of 2026. His previous contract was set to expire next month. It is known that his salary has been significantly increased under the new agreement.
Jesus became the head coach of Al-Hilal last summer. Under his leadership, the team won the Saudi Arabian championship without suffering a single defeat in 34 matches: 31 wins and 3 draws.
Al-Hilal's only loss of the season occurred in the AFC Champions League semi-final against Al-Ain (2-4). In the return match, Al-Hilal won 2-1 but exited the tournament.
Before joining Al-Hilal, Jesus coached Fenerbahçe, Benfica, Flamengo, Sporting Lisbon, Braga, and other Portuguese clubs.
In the summer of 2025, Jesus's team will compete in the Club World Cup, which will be held in a new format in the United States for the first time.
