Ronaldo’s son has completed the signing of a new contract with a club and pledged to play football alongside his legendary father. Cristiano Jr has taken a big step forward in his football career, as he wishes to play alongside his father in the world of football. Ronaldo’s son is currently 13 years old and has signed a contract with the U-13 Al Nassr team in Saudi Arabia, where his father is playing. It seems that Cristiano Jr is on the right track to achieving his first goal of playing professional football alongside his father.

According to transfer expert and journalist with reliable sources, Fabrizio Romano, Ronaldo’s son has signed a contract with Al Nassr and will wear the legendary number 7 jersey like his father. The young Ronaldo hopes to one day play professional football alongside his father, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner. In 2022, Cristiano Ronaldo revealed that his eldest son expressed his ambition to play alongside him, saying “Dad, wait a few more years, I want to play with you!”
The son of Ronaldo is putting in the effort to train and be able to play professional football alongside his famous father. Ronaldo will turn 39 next year, and his time as a professional player at the highest level may be limited. However, there are recent reports that Ronaldo wants to extend his contract with Al Nassr until he is 42 years old and play for Portugal’s national team at the 2026 World Cup. At that time, Ronaldo’s son will be 16 years old, and theoretically, Ronaldo Jr could play professional football alongside his father. Cristiano Jr has accompanied his father to every team he has played for and has played football at some of Europe’s famous youth training academies, including Real Madrid, Juventus, and Manchester United.
Cristiano Ronaldo fully supports any decision his eldest son makes for his future. He has never placed any pressure on the young boy and has expressed that he will support him no matter what path he chooses. Last year, Ronaldo explained that he will never force his son to do anything. He wants him to be happy and able to choose his own destiny. Ronaldo will always be there to support him in any way possible.
