Cristiano Ronaldo Jr Is A BALLER! Watch Soccer Icon's Son Showcase His Slick Skills

Cristiano Ronaldo is a soccer icon.

The 38-year-old Portugal forward has scored more goals than any other player in the history of the Beautiful Game.

Ronaldo's career is far from finished as he is still going strong.

He recently hit the 40-goal mark in 2023 in only his 43rd appearance of the calendar year.

Nevertheless, the former Real Madrid and Manchester United sensation - despite being one of the fittest athletes of all time - is surely deep in the twilight years of his record-breaking career.

But the CR7 legacy appears to be in capable hands feet.

That is because Ronaldo's eldest son is a talented footballer with ambitions of following in his father's famous footsteps.

Cristiano Ronaldo Jr spent two years in the Juventus youth system while his dad was playing in Serie A.

He has also featured for Real Madrid and Manchester United at junior level.

Following his father's move to Al Nassr in January, Cristiano Jr began training with the Mahd Academy in Riyadh, where he worked alongside players two years older than him.

It was then recently reported that Cristiano Jr had signed for Al Nassr's U13 side.

Cristiano Jr impressed at a training camp in Portugal's Algarve region last summer.

Footage of Cristiano Jr - dressed in an Al Nassr training jersey and Real Madrid shorts - went viral earlier this year.

A video - shared by Apex Football Performance - showed the youngster displaying his slick dribbling and shooting skills, as well as impersonating his father's trademark free-kick routine.

Cristiano Jr, 13, was born in California in June 2010, meaning he could choose to play for the USMNT when he grows up.

He could also represent Portugal, Spain, or even Saudi Arabia depending on how long he and his family continue to live there.
