Cristiano Ronaldo trained with his Portugal team-mates ahead of their UEFA Nations League match against the Czech Republic at the Fortuna Arena in Prague on Saturday.
Portugal coach Fernando Santos has insisted he is not worried about Ronaldo's lack of match time with Manchester United this season.
Looking to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Switzerland last time out, Santos has also included Joao Felix, Diogo Jota, Bernardo Silva and Bruno Fernandes in the squad, along with defenders Joao Cancelo, Pepe and newcomer Tiago Djalo.
Out because of injuries are Otavio and Renato Sanches. Santos has also left out Andre Silva, Goncalo Guedes and Joao Moutinho, a player with the second-most appearances for the national team behind Ronaldo.
Portugal, winner of the inaugural edition of the Nations League in 2019, trail Spain by one point in Group 2 of League A. The team is three points ahead of the Czech Republic.
