Ronaldo Praises His Son’s Growth and Football Future
Cristiano Ronaldo praises his son’s physical development and potential, calling him taller and stronger than he was at the same age.
Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese football legend currently playing for Al Nassr, expressed admiration for his 14-year-old son, Cristiano Jr., during a visit to the Al Nassr youth training session. Ronaldo highlighted the physical and technical progress his son has made, drawing comparisons to his own youth.
Impressive Growth
Ronaldo remarked on his son’s physique, saying, "At 14, he’s taller and stronger than I was at the same age. Back then, I was much shorter. I believe he’ll grow even taller than me." The proud father’s comments reflect his confidence in Cristiano Jr.’s potential to excel in football.
Determination is Key
During the session, Ronaldo’s representative at Al Nassr, Ricardo Roggi, jokingly questioned whether Junior possessed the same determination as his father. Ronaldo replied with a smile, emphasizing the importance of perseverance: "Yes, determination is everything."
Junior’s Journey at Al Nassr
Cristiano Jr. has been part of Al Nassr’s youth setup since Ronaldo joined the club in 2023. Over the past two years, Junior has achieved notable team successes, contrasting with his father’s focus on personal accolades. As Ronaldo’s contract with Al Nassr concludes at the end of the season, the question of Junior’s next step remains uncertain. Should Ronaldo move to another team, Junior is expected to follow suit.
Looking Ahead
The young Ronaldo’s development is being closely watched by fans and scouts alike, with many anticipating a bright future in football. Whether he will follow in his father’s footsteps to achieve greatness remains to be seen, but for now, Cristiano Jr. is on the right path.
