Roberto Martinez was unveiled as the new head coach of Portugal on Monday, post which he told the media that Cristiano Ronaldo was in his plans for the team and that he wants to hold talks with the Al Nassr striker.
Ronaldo had a disappointing World Cup in Qatar, and the Portuguese skipper was dropped by former head coach Fernando Santos for the knockout games against Switzerland and Morocco in what could be his last campaign.
However, Martinez hasn't ruled out a first-team return for the 37-year-old - who has scored 118 goals in 196 outings.
"He has been with the national team for 19 years, and he deserves the respect for us to sit down and talk." Martinez added.
