Former Portuguese and Swiss coach Arthur Jorge has signed an agreement to train the Saudi Arabian club Nasr for a season, the club said Monday. 

Jorge, 54, also coached several top European clubs during his career including Portuguese side FC Porto, with which he won the European Champions Cup in 1987, Benfica, Matra Racing and Paris-Saint-Germain. 

The contract fee was not disclosed. 

Nasr sacked Milan Zivadovich of Yugoslavia as coach in April following the defeat of his team in a Saudi Arabia Cup game and was provisionally replaced by Saudi coach Youssef Khamis - (AFP)
