The former Benfica and Al-Hilal boss has done the round in Portuguese football, but taking charge of the national side is his biggest job yet.One of the biggest talking points ahead of his first game will inevitably be Cristiano Ronaldo.The 41-year-old remains part of the Portugal setup despite suggesting before the World Cup that the tournament could mark the end of his international career. Ronaldo has scored an extraordinary 146 goals for his country and will be looking to add to that tally as Portugal begin their latest Nations League campaign.Portugal have plenty of other attacking options, with Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, Rafael Le�o, Pedro Neto, Jo�o Flix and Gonalo Ramos all included in Jesus' 25-man squad.The midfield also contains considerable quality, with Paris Saint-Germain trio Vitinha and Jo�o Neves joined by Manchester United captain Fernandes, while Ruben Dias is expected to anchor the defence.The hosts arrive as the most successful team in Nations League history, having lifted the trophy in both 2019 and 2025. Their latest triumph came after a penalty shoot-out victory over Spain in the 2024/25 final.Wales, meanwhile, face a formidable opening assignment under Bellamy.The Dragons earned promotion to League A after topping their group in the previous Nations League campaign and will now test themselves against Portugal, Denmark and Norway. UEFA's fixture list has Wales travelling to Portugal before another away game against Denmark, making a positive result in Lisbon particularly valuable.Bellamy has named a 28-man squad for the opening Nations League fixtures, with experienced players such as captain Ben Davies, Harry Wilson and Brennan Johnson joined by a number of younger players pushing for international prominence.Wilson and Jordan James return after missing Wales' June friendlies through injury, while Leicester City's Wes Burns is also back in the squad. However, Wales will be without centre-backs Joe Rodon and Dylan Lawlor because of injury.READ Cristiano Ronaldo international career is not over, says new Portugal bossSquadsPortugalGoalkeepers: Diogo Costa (FC Porto), Rui Silva (Sporting), Samuel Soares (Benfica)Defenders: Joao Cancelo (Barcelona), Diogo Dalot (Manchester United), Ruben Dias (Manchester City), Tomas Araujo (Benfica), Renato Veiga (Villarreal), Goncalo Inacio (Sporting CP), Nuno Mendes (PSG), Nuno Tavares (Lazio)Midfielders: Joao Palhinha (Benfica), Ruben Neves (Al-Hilal), Vitinha (PSG), Joao Neves (PSG), Bernardo Silva (Real Madrid), Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United)Forwards: Francisco Conceicao (Juventus), Franciso Trincao (Al Ahli), Rafael Leao (Milan), Pedro Neto (Chelsea), Joao Felix (Al-Nassr), Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nassr), Goncalo Ramos (Milan), Fabio Silva (Borussia Dortmund)WalesGoalkeepers: Karl Darlow (Manchester United), Danny Ward (Wrexham), Tom King (Everton)Defenders: Jay DaSilva (Coventry City), Jayden Lienou (Leeds United), Ben Davies (Tottenham Hotspur), Rhys Norrington-Davies (Sheffield United), Chris Mepham (West Bromwich Albion), Ben Cabango (Swansea City), Neco Williams (Nottingham Forest), Connor Roberts (Burnley)Midfielders: Ethan Ampadu (Leeds United), Josh Sheehan (Bolton Wanderers), Jordan James (Wolverhampton Wanderers on loan from Stade Rennais), Liam Cullen (Leicester City), Joel Colwill (Cardiff City), Harry Wilson (Leeds United), Sorba Thomas (Hull City), David Brooks (Bournemouth), Cameron Congreve (KVC Westerlo), Wes Burns (Leicester City)Forwards: Nathan Broadhead (Wrexham), Brennan Johnson (Everton), Kieffer Moore (Wrexham), Lewis Koumas (Liverpool), Mark Harris (Oxford United), Dan James (Leeds United), Cian Ashford (Cardiff City)FourFourTwo's predictionPortugal 2-1 WalesFourFourTwo thinks Portugal will edge this one out in Lisbon, after Wales take the lead.DisclaimerWe test and review VPN services in the context of legal recreational uses.
