Manchester City midfielder Matheus Nunes has been released from international duty with Portugal after being declared ‘clinically unfit’.
That’s according to Record, who cover the player today and how he will miss the current break after complaining of ‘muscle complaints’.
A report earlier today indicated that the Manchester City man was a doubt for Portugal’s upcoming final Euro 2024 qualifying games after missing the final training session on Tuesday.
The midfielder had reportedly been complaining of unidentified muscle complaints and there were doubts about whether he would be a part of the group travelling at some point this afternoon.
According to them he reported muscle complaints on Wednesday and was assessed by the FPF’s Health and Performance Unit, who found him to be ‘clinically unfit’ and this ‘dismissed’ him from the group.
This has also been confirmed in a statement on Portugal’s official website, who confirmed that the midfielder was deemed unfit after undergoing tests.
He has not travelled with the rest of the national delegation and will now presumably return to Manchester City to work with them and get back to full fitness.
