The 36-year-old has been part of Portugal’s training sessions since joining the national team earlier this month. This suggests that the five-time Ballon d’Or is in contention to play a part in the Selecao’s fixture against Serbia.
Given the need for a positive result from this encounter, it is certain that Cristiano Ronaldo will be once again playing the entire 90 minutes for his country. The Manchester United star has scored six goals in as many qualifying matches and will hope that he can continue that run against Serbia as well.
