The 2016 European champions are gearing up for Euro 2024, with high hopes and a new maestro at the helm. Roberto Martinez has taken over from the Euro 2016-winning coach Fernando Santos, aiming to lead Portugal to glory once more.
Cristiano Ronaldo, now 39 and still defying the sands of time, is set to grace his sixth European Championship and his 11th major international tournament. The most-capped male player in international football history remains pivotal to Portugal’s aspirations.
Martinez, who couldn’t quite bring Belgium’s ‘Golden Generation’ to the promised land, now seeks redemption with Portugal. Meanwhile, Ronaldo is eager to add another international trophy to his collection after the near miss at the 2022 World Cup.
But it’s not just the Ronaldo show. Portugal boasts an ensemble cast featuring the dazzling talents of Joao Cancelo, Ruben Dias, Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes, and Joao Felix. Expect fireworks and flair as they aim to replicate their heroics from eight years ago.
Stay tuned for a thrilling ride!
