The strongest Portugal squad for Euro 2024: Formidable power.

 Portugal squad for Euro 2024 has officially announced the preliminary squad of 26 players to prepare for Euro 2024, and below is the strongest lineup of the 'Selecao Europe' as chosen by us.

Roberto Martinez has left no Portuguese national team fan complaining with his selections for the national squad to prepare for Euro 2024. Top superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, along with emerging young talents, will combine forces to create an incredibly strong Portuguese team for this tournament.

Being in Group F and facing relatively weaker opponents like Georgia, Turkey, and Czech Republic, Roberto Martinez's squad is likely to showcase its strength against these rivals and potentially make a deep run in Euro this time around.

Coach Roberto Martinez is renowned for his attractive attacking style of play during his time leading the Belgium national team, and with the array of top-notch attackers at his disposal, the 50-year-old strategist will bring an explosive performance to the Portuguese fans. Additionally, the other positions are well-polished with the presence of key figures from their respective club teams, presenting a perfect balance in a lineup that leaves no room for concerns.

Goalkeeper: Diogo Costa

The 24-year-old goalkeeper was tested at the World Cup 2022 when he claimed the starting position from his senior counterpart Rui Patricio and performed exceptionally well in the tournament held in Qatar. In this Euro, Costa will undoubtedly once again be the number one choice in Portugal's goal, expected to provide a solid foundation for his teammates ahead to fulfill their tasks with excellence.

Defenders: Joao Cancelo, Ruben Dias, Pepe, Diogo Dalot

In the full-back positions, there are no better choices than Joao Cancelo and Diogo Dalot. With their mobility, speed foundation, and technical prowess, this duo will provide numerous options in the attacking avenues with precise crosses or shots that bring about high dynamism.

In the heart of the defense, no names shine brighter than the duo of Ruben Dias and Pepe. Dias is an indispensable component in Manchester City's journey to conquer the Premier League title four times in a row, showcasing his top-class quality. Meanwhile, the 41-year-old veteran Pepe brings steel in every tackle and becomes a nightmare for all strikers when facing him.

Midfielders: Bruno Fernandes, Joao Palhinha, Vitinha

Among the three midfield positions, two names playing in the Premier League stand out: Bruno Fernandes and Joao Palhinha. Although not highly successful in terms of team achievements, this duo has been outstanding performers in the biggest stage of the "Land of the Fog" by being the player who created the most opportunities for teammates (114 times) and the player with the most tackles (152 times) in the 2023/2024 season. This is seen as a perfect balance in comprehensive offensive and defensive capabilities, and this duo promises to make Portugal's midfield a formidable force.

Playing alongside the aforementioned duo is Vitinha, a player who has delivered an extremely impressive performance in the PSG jersey. The 24-year-old player is an irreplaceable element in the lineup of the "rich man of France" by becoming the pivot of ball circulation and linking between the lines. According to the SofaScores website, Vitinha is the second-highest rated player at PSG, only behind superstar Kylian Mbappe, which demonstrates the class of the 24-year-old midfielder.

Forwards: Rafael Leao, Bernardo Silva, Cristiano Ronaldo

There's no debate about the central striker position when Ronaldo's name is mentioned. Despite being 39 years old, the "living legend" continues to shine in the Saudi Pro League with a series of goals. Surely Ronaldo's presence in the lineup will provide motivation and additional strength for his teammates playing around him.

Firing alongside CR7 in the attack are the two sharpshooters Rafael Leao and Bernardo Silva. Leao, with his youth, speed, and solid technical foundation, will create many breakthroughs on the left flank. Meanwhile, the unpredictability of Bernardo Silva is expected to "ignite" his teammates, thus helping the team achieve favorable results.
