Portugal's Pepe has extended his record as the oldest player to feature in a UEFA EURO tournament, now aged 41 years and 117 days. The veteran defender broke Gábor Király's previous record during Portugal's match against Czechia and further solidified his status against Türkiye. Pepe, known for his enduring fitness and professionalism, first made his mark at EURO 2008 and has since been a stalwart for Portugal. His longevity and contributions to the team, including winning the EURO 2016 title, underscore his remarkable career on the international stage.
