Cristiano Ronaldo at PGE Narodowy? There is a decision on Portugal’s appointments
Roberto Martinez revealed his cards in the context of call-ups for October’s UEFA Nations League matches. It has been clarified whether Cristiano Ronaldo will play at the PGE Narodowy.
It is worth recalling that the legendary Portuguese, despite the unsuccessful Euro 2024, intends to continue his representative career. Recently, there was even a slogan about the 2026 World Cup, in which Cristiano Ronaldo wants to play. Looking at the Portuguese player’s goalscoring form, this cannot be ruled out.
Will Cristiano Ronaldo play in the Poland-Portugal match at PGE Narodowy?
However, before thinking about the World Cup in two years, the UEFA Nations League will be played on the Old Continent at the end of 2024. It so happens that Portugal was placed in a group in which the Polish national team also competes. In October, both teams will face each other in a direct clash at the PGE Narodowy.
Looking at the call-ups of Michał Probierz and Roberto Martinez, the Portuguese coach, there will be a meeting of two captains and snipers of their national teams – Robert Lewandowski and Cristiano Ronaldo.
