BANDA ACEH – Acehnese TikToker Musliadi (33), popularly known as Gam Kleng, is confident that Portugal will emerge as champions at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

“I strongly believe Portugal will win the 2026 World Cup,” Gam Kleng told reporters in Banda Aceh on Monday (June 15, 2026).

His confidence stems from the star-studded composition of the Portugal national team heading into the tournament.

“Especially with Cristiano Ronaldo, who brings a lot of luck and inspiration,” Gam Kleng added.

According to him, Ronaldo, now 41 years old and making his sixth World Cup appearance, will give his all to bring the trophy home for his country.

“Ronaldo is the highest goal scorer in Portugal’s history, with 143 international goals. This is his last opportunity to chase the World Cup title, and he will surely give everything,” Gam Kleng emphasized.

Besides Ronaldo, Portugal’s key players also include Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva, Ruben Dias, and Rafael Leão, who form the backbone of the team.

He elaborated that Bruno Fernandes, who plays for Manchester United, is a creative midfielder known for his ability to control the tempo of the game.

Meanwhile, Bernardo Silva, the Manchester City playmaker, is renowned for his vision and ball control.

At the back, Portugal’s defence will be marshalled by tough centre-back Ruben Dias, who has been outstanding for Manchester City.

Up front, Portugal boast several fast and explosive attackers, including Rafael Leão from AC Milan.

They also have João Félix, a creative forward currently playing for Al Nassr alongside Ronaldo, and Gonçalo Ramos, the young PSG striker tipped as the future of Portugal’s attack.

“With this line-up, I’m absolutely convinced Portugal will lift the 2026 World Cup trophy,” concluded Gam Kleng.
