Portugal: Maniche Will Miss EURO This Time

Friday, May 16th, 2008

Although four years ago Maniche shone at UEFA EURO, the FC Internazionale Milano midfielder is not among Portugal’s final 23-man squad for UEFA EURO 2008. Coach Luiz Felipe Scolari however included Maniche’s brother in his final 23-man squad for UEFA EURO 2008.

So, it seems that it will be Jorge Ribeiro’s turn to shine at UEFA EURO. Maniche’s brother is 26 years old and he plays at Boavista, for which he has scored eight goals in 26 Liga outings.

Luiz Felipe Scolari’s squad is to convene in Viseu for a training camp that will last between 19 and 31 May.
