Bernardo Silva will lead Portugal into the post-Cristiano Ronaldo era, with head coach Jorge Jesus confirming the Real Madrid midfielder as the national team’s new captain on Friday.
Jesus named a 28-man squad for the Nations League games against Denmark in Braga on Saturday, November 14 and Wales in Cardiff three days later. He also used his press conference to settle the question that had hung over the squad all week about the team’s next captain.
