Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly becoming increasingly frustrated with the coaching situation at Al Nassr.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner is not happy with coach Rudi Garcia and the work being put in by the Frenchman, according to AS.
Last weekend, the Saudi Pro League juggernauts dropped more points in the race for the league title when they drew 0-0 with mid-table side Al-Fayha.
During the match, Ronaldo was visibly frustrated by the opposition's time-wasting tactics as the 10th-placed team clung on for the solitary point, with the Portugal captain storming off the pitch after the final whistle was blown.
The draw comes at a time when Al Nassr have already loosened their grip on a potential first league title in four years after also drawing with Al-Fateh and being defeated by now-top-of-the-table Al-Ittihad earlier in the campaign.
Since making his debut for the Knights of Najd, the 38-year-old has been prolific in the Gulf, scoring 11 goals in 12 appearances for his new side, but while he has been performing on an individual level, he has been unimpressed with the overall levels of the coach and the team.
The Madeira native signed a massive £173 million (R3.9 billion) deal at the beginning of the year to move to Riyadh, and while Rudi Garcia might have been in the hot seat prior to Ronaldo's arrival, it seems the Portuguese's influence at the club may trump that of the former AS Roma boss.

Al Nassr are currently three points adrift of top spot, and following Ronaldo's arrival at the club, the pressure will surely be mounting on Garcia to capture the league title.
However, he now will need Al-Ittihad to drop points if he is to help his side return to the summit of the log.
