By , Football Editor
A thigh injury will keep Galatasaray midfielder Raul Meireles out of Portugal's upcoming World Cup qualification matches against Israel and Luxembourg.

Galatasaray midfielder Raul Meireles has been ruled out of Portugal's upcoming World Cup qualification matches against Israel and Luxembourg with a thigh injury.

The former Chelsea man is believed to have picked up the injury in training, with the Portuguese Football Federation confirming his absence on Wednesday.

As a result, Braga midfielder Custodio, who has nine international caps to his name, has been called into the squad for their two Group F matches.

Joao Pereira, Miguel Lopes and Bruno Alves are also among the absentees.
