Cristiano Ronaldo Included in Portugal Squad for UEFA Nations League by New CoachPreviousNext

Cristiano Ronaldo, 41, has been named in Portugal's squad for the upcoming UEFA Nations League by new head coach Jorge Jesus, confirming his continuation with the national team beyond the 2026 World Cup. Although Ronaldo indicated the World Cup would be his last, he has not announced his international retirement. Jesus, who previously coached Ronaldo at Al-Nassr, emphasized that selection will depend on performance. Ronaldo remains the leading men's international goalscorer with 146 goals and is nearing 1,000 career goals. Portugal will face Wales, Norway, and Denmark in the Nations League fixtures.
