Legendary goalscorer Cristiano Ronaldo holds the record for the most all-time appearances for Portugal in World Cup football.
The former Real Madrid and Manchester United star has represented Portugal at six different World Cups during his career.
He has played a total of 25 World Cup matches and he will be hoping to increase that tally further by the end of the 2026 tournament.
The 10 World Cup goals he has scored also puts him one ahead of the great Eusebio on the all-time list.
Ronaldo's former Real Madrid teammate Pepe is second of the list with a total of 12 World Cup appearances when counting tournaments since 1990.
Playmaker Bernardo Silva and former winger Simao have played one game less than Pepe with 11 appearances.
Luis Figo featured at the World Cup on 10 occasions, with Ricardo Carvalho and William Carvalho replicating that feat.
Pauleta, Petit and Tiago Mendes also feature on the list of the top 10 players with the most World Cup appearances for Portugal in the modern era.
