Who doesn’t get impressed by curlers? After scoring plenty of winning goals for Al Nassr youth teams, this time Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.’s bending free kick in training was brought to light by Chelsea under-18 player, Yahya Idrissi-Regragui.

Both the youngsters caught up in Dubai and were seen enjoying themselves on the pitch. Idrissi, after watching him, also took a few kicks, which weren’t bad either, but chose the left side of the post. Jr.’s efforts, even in training, would make every Cristiano Ronaldo fan proud. Additionally, his style of play could earn him his own set of fans, deservingly. We can assume he tries to emulate the 5-time Ballon d’Or winner, but a few things also depend on individual hard work.

He quoted, “[Ronaldo] mentioned that he follows him constantly but does not pressure him and that he has his own way, just like [Ronaldo’s] own way“. The Al Nassr captain once said that he does will never pressure his son.

Without a doubt, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. admires his father and his goal-scoring prowess. AKA Cristianinho, he was spotted flaunting his father’s iconic Siuu celebration after goals. The player has also scored regularly this season, which will certainly not disappoint his dad at all.
