The list drawn up by Ruben Amorim's coaching team includes the reinforcements Kovacevic, Debast, Maxi Araújo, and Conrad Harder.

It should be emphasised that players from List B, or those born on or after January 1, 2003, who fulfil specific qualifications, may be included. The Lions haven't added any players to this group, anyway.

There is no time restriction on how many times these gamers can register.

It's important to note that Quenda, who is anticipated to be on List B, is now absent.

Goalkeepers: Israel and Kovacevic.

Defenders: Matheus Reis, St. Juste, Debast, Fresneda, Gonçalo Inácio, Diomande, Esgaio and Eduardo Quaresma.

Midfielders: Morita, Pote, Braganca, Maxi Araújo, Geny Catamo, Hjulmand and Kauã Oliveira.

Forwards: Gyökeres, Marcus Edwards, Trincao, Nuno Santos, Conrad Harder and Mauro Couto.
