Cristiano Ronaldo said that Portugal's current generation of players deserves to win the 2024 European Championship.
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, Paris Saint-Germain's Vitinha, and Manchester City pair Bernardo Silva and Rúben Dias are among the high-profile players in the Portuguese team aiming to win this year in Germany.
The five time Ballon d'Or winner said: "I believe that this generation deserves to win a competition of this magnitude. Semifinals? I hope we can go further.
"We have to go step by step, live in the moment, be calm, work as well as we have until now, believe that it is possible.
