Portugal kicked off their Euro 2024 campaign with a historic start, featuring veteran defender Pepe, who became the oldest player to start in a European Championship, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who has participated in every edition of the tournament since 2004.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Pepe have been named in Portugal’s squad for the 2024 European Championship. The squad features nine players from the Premier League, including Ruben Dias, Diogo Dalot, Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, and Diogo Jota. Goncalo Inacio is the only Sporting player in the squad.
The frog-themed meme coin Pepe has soared by 17% in the past 24 hours, fueled by a surge in whale transactions. This rally brings Pepe closer to the valuation of its canine counterpart, Dogecoin, and pushes it into the top three meme coins by market cap. Analysts have attributed the move to a breakout from a one-day downtrend and a potential continuation of the bullish trend.
