There are no surprises in the list of 26 for the World Cup in Qatar unveiled today by Portugal coach Fernando Santos.
A list opened by Cristiano Ronaldo, 37, but still essential.
The five-time Golden Ball will still be the only over 30-year-old in the offensive sector, marked by a decent generational change with the call-up of the Milan winger, Rafael Leao (23), and the Benfica center-forward, Gonçalo Ramos (21) .
He also revives the defensive line with the first call of the revelation of Benfica, Antonio Silva (19 years old).
Excluding Liverpool forward Diogo Jota (injured) and Joao Moutinho (his performance with Wolverhampton has been very bad so far).
Inserted in Group H, Portugal will face Ghana, Uruguay and South Korea. First they will play a friendly with Nigeria.
