Portugal's manager, Fernando Santos has announced his 26 man roaster for this summer's rescheduled European Championships.
Juventus forward, Cristiano Ronaldo leads a star cast of players which includes Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes, Manchester City's trio of Bernardo Silva, Joao Cancelo and Ruben Dias.
Also included in the 26 man roaster are Liverpool's Diogo Jota, Atletico Madrid's Joao Felix and Wolverhampton Wanderers' foursome of Rui Patricio, Nelson Semedo, Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho.
Paris Saint Germain's Danilo Pereira, Eintracht Frankfurt's Andre Silva and Lille OSC's Renato Sanches also made the cut as well.
Balancing the side with a bit of experience, Fernando Santos also included veteran defenders Pepe of FC Porto and Lille OSC's Jose Fonte as well as Real Betis' William Carvalho in his roaster.
In what has been tagged the group of death, Cristiano Ronaldo and his compatriots would begin their title defence with an opening fixture against Group F minnows Hungary on the 15th of June.
Four days after, they would trade tackles with Germany before they engage the French National Team, in what is a repeat of the Euro 2016 championship match on the 23rd of June.
