When he was dropped from the starting lineup by former Portugal coach Fernando Santos in the World Cup, it also seemed his international days may have been numbered. Now, &lt;b&gt;he’s been called to Roberto Martinez’s squad &lt;/b&gt;and is&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/ronaldo-trains-with-martinezs-portugal-squad-v/" target="_blank"&gt; already practicing&lt;/a&gt; for their Euro 2024 qualifier against Liechtenstein on Thursday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/ronaldo-makes-bold-claim-about-saudi-league-v/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo has been named in &lt;b&gt;Roberto Martínez’s national squad for the upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers against Liechtenstein and Luxembourg&lt;/b&gt;. Ronaldo, now 38, moved to Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Nassr at the start of the year after his second spell at Manchester United ground to a halt. &lt;b&gt;A move to a lesser-known league than that of the Premier League, especially at the ripe age Ronaldo is, usually signals a winding down of pressure and demand&lt;/b&gt; on a player who has little else left to win. But then again, when has Ronaldo ever talked about ‘winding down’?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/cristiano-ronaldo-called-up-to-roberto-martinezs-portugal-squad-what-records-can-he-still-achieve-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>

      <content:encoded>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Roberto Martínez is very close to returning to coaching another national team. &lt;/b&gt;The Spanish head coach decided not to continue as Belgium’s coach after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where his team lost their first game in a group that included Morocco and&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/josko-gvardiol-liverpool-is-the-club-of-my-dreams-n/" target="_blank"&gt; Croatia&lt;/a&gt;, two semi-finalists. &lt;b&gt;Martínez’s contract was up and, although the Belgian FA approached him to extend it before the World Cup, he has left and looks set to take over as head coach of the Portugal national team.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.as.com/soccer/roberto-martinez-set-for-return-to-international-management-n/" target="_blank"&gt;Seguir leyendo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content:encoded>
