Former Chelsea defender, Frank Leboeuf has claimed that Portugal will win the Euro 2024 if their captain Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t play for them.

Ronaldo is set to lead his country to this summer’s Euros in Germany, aiming to win the trophy for a second time.

The 39-year-old forward managed to help Portugal win a first-ever piece of silverware when he captained them to glory in Euro 2016 in France.

Portugal are in Group F with Türkiye, Czech Republic, and a playoff qualifier.

Speaking to BetVictor, Leboeuf said:

“For me, Portugal are actually one of the contenders for this summer’s European Championships.

“I actually think they can win the Euros, but only if Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t play.

“You cannot take away anything that Ronaldo has done for football just because he has gone to retire in the Saudi League. I want to thank him for taking the sport to another level, but there is an end for everyone.”
