Striker sidelined with knee injury
Portugal will be without Danny for Euro 2012 after the winger was ruled out for eight months with a knee injury.
The injury, which was sustained in training with Zenit St Petersburg, is the latest in a string of problems the 28-year-old has had with his knee.
The midfielder was out for almost a year after tearing cruciate ligaments in 2009, and he injured his knee again last November, missing several games, including Portugal's Euro 2012 play-off win against Bosnia.
Zenit confirmed on their website that Danny had suffered a "complete tear of the front cruciate ligaments in his right knee."
The injury means he will also miss Zenit's Champions League campaign, with the Russian club hosting Benfica next week in the first leg of their last 16 tie.
