Cristiano Ronaldo has been called up by new Portugal head coach Roberto Martinez for European Championship qualifiers against Liechtenstein and Luxembourg.

Former Manchester United teammates of Ronaldo's - Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot - are also included in the ex-Everton manager's 26-man squad. Manchester City duo Bernardo Silva and Ruben Dias are also involved.

For Portugal, these fixtures are their first since being eliminated by Morocco in the World Cup quarter-finals, a match which proved to be the last for coach Fernando Santos. Ronaldo only featured from the substitutes bench during that match and in the previous round against Switzerland. Now at Al-Nassr, he will hope for a more prominent role under Martinez as he approaches 200 international caps for his country.
