Portugal have confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo will be called up for their Nations League semi-final with Switzerland next month.
Ronaldo has not yet played in the Nations League due to going on a post-World Cup break, but CT Fernando Santos wants the Juventus talisman to fire Portugal into their second European Final in three years.
“Yes, CR7 will certainly be in the squad that I will name on May 23,” Santos told Sport TV.

“Yes, CR7 will certainly be in the squad that I will name on May 23,” Santos told Sport TV.
“His absence during the group stage, which has already been explained, was totally legitimate and understandable.”
The No 7 has scored 85 goals in 156 caps for the Selecao and took part in their Euro 2020 qualifiers against Ukraine and Serbia two months ago.
