The 20-year-old – who has just signed a new five-year contract at Molineux – is joined by Wolves team-mates Rui Patricio, Nelson Semedo, Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho in the squad.

Daniel Podence, having made his Portugal bow in the last round of internationals, has been left out this time around by Fernando Santos, though.

Neto has been promoted to the senior set-up after recently starring for their under-21s, scoring twice in four games.

He will hope to gain his first full cap as Portugal face Andorra, France and Portugal later this month.
