Jorge Fernando Pinheiro de Jesus ComIH (Portuguese pronunciation: ; born 24 July 1954) is a Portuguese professional football manager and former player who is the head coach of the Portugal national team.
Jesus started his career with Sporting CP, going on to play for 12 other clubs in 17 years as a professional, which included nine Primeira Liga seasons.
He began a coaching career in 1990, and his first stop in the main category was with Felgueiras in the 1995–96 campaign. He went on to work with several teams, arriving at Benfica in 2009 and winning ten trophies (a club record for a single manager, winning all domestic trophies at least once) as well as reaching two UEFA Europa League finals with them in six seasons. He became manager of Flamengo in 2019 and won the Copa Libertadores and Campeonato Brasileiro Série A in his first year. He returned to Benfica in 2020 but did not win a trophy despite a Portuguese record investment during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, he joined Turkish club Fenerbahçe before going on to have spells in charge of Saudi Pro League clubs Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr, winning the domestic title with both. In July 2026, he was named the manager of the Portugal national team.
Jesus was twice considered one of the ten best club coaches in the world by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics, in 2013 (eighth place) and in 2019 (7th place).
