Ronaldo out of Portugal squad again

Cristiano Ronaldo has been left out of Portugal's squad again, coach Fernando Santos confirmed.

Ronaldo was not in their last squad for the Nations League fixture, however it is believed that he has requested not to be selected. 

The 2016 European Championship winners scraped past Italy in their last Nations League match, however they will have to take on Poland without their main man. 

It is not yet known whether Ronaldo's omission relates to the alleged sexual assult allegations that he is facing in the United States. 

Ronaldo has 154 caps for his country, scoring an impressive 85 goals. 

Here is the Portugal squad in full:
