Cristiano Ronaldo
The goal is clear: play in the 2026 World Cup (perhaps his last). Cristiano Ronaldo is indeed present to kick off the qualifiers with Portugal.
Roberto Martinez, head coach of Portugal, revealed his squad list this Friday for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Portugal will face Armenia on September 6 before traveling to Hungary three days later.
Despite being 40 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo is, of course, part of the Portuguese squad. Having joined Al-Nassr this summer, Joao Félix has also been called up. Rafael Leao misses out due to injury. This will be Portugal's first gathering since the passing of Diogo Jota.
