Fernando Santos may take the opportunity to utilise the depth of his Portugal squad in Tuesday s friendly against Cape Verde.

Fabio Coentrao s 63rd-minute strike was enough to earn Portugal a 2-1 victory over Serbia in Lisbon on Sunday.

That result lifted Portugal to the top of Euro 2016 qualifying Group I, with nine points from their four matches.

Portugal will round off their international week by hosting Cape Verde in Estoril, and the likes of Sporting s Paulo Oliveira and Vitoria Guimaraes Andre Andre are hoping to make their international bow.

It s a dream come true and it is a source of pride being here, Oliveira said.

Being here is a remarkable moment in my career.

Andre echoed those sentiments, saying: I m very happy.

Arjen Robben is slowly edging closer to his Bayern Munich comeback after resuming individual training on Saturday.

The Netherlands international suffered an adductor injury in the friendly against Lippstadt four weeks ago and has since been out of action.

The injury keeps him out of Sunday s DFL-Supercup encounter with Borussia Dortmund and he is likely to miss Bayern s DFB-Pokal trip to Carl Zeiss Jena on Friday, too.

The Argentine has failed to live up to his 6.5 million pounds price tag since moving to the DW Stadium in 2010 and spent last year on loan with Estudiantes.

Lionel Messi scored a hat-trick as Barcelona regained the title in LaLiga with a pulsating 4-2 win against Deportivo La Coruna, who were relegated.

The runaway leaders headed into Sunday s fixture at the Riazor knowing a point would be enough to win a seventh title in the past 10 seasons and the 25th in their history.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic would add determination and character to a beleaguered Milan side who suffered their worst Serie A defeat in over 21 years against Atalanta, says Stefano Pioli.

The Rossoneri were embarrassed in Bergamo on Sunday with Josip Ilicic s double and goals from Alejandro Gomez, Mario Pasalic and Luis Muriel consigning them to a 5-0 defeat – not since May 1998 against Roma had they lost by five goals.

Ex-Milan striker Ibrahimovic has long been linked with a return and, although Pioli insists a deal for the veteran striker remains in the hands of the club s hierarchy, the head coach acknowledged the qualities he would add to his squad.

These are questions for the club owners, he told DAZN when asked about Ibrahimovic, who is a free agent.
