Chelsea and Portugal defender Paulo Ferreira has confirmed his retirement from international football, according to his club's website.
Ferreira, 31, told the Portuguese Football Federation of his decision on Monday to call time on his eight-year international career. During that time, he picked up 62 caps and played at two European Championships and two World Cups.
The full-back has appeared in Chelsea's opening games this season after injury concerns for Branislav Ivanovic. The ex-Porto man will now concentrate on his club duties as the Blues look to build on last season's FA Cup and Premier League success.
