There is a culture in football where the children of footballers are always compared to their parents. This happens in other sports too, but right now the man (or the child) of the hour is Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s first son, Ronaldo Jr. is still only eleven and has been unveiled as a Manchester United academy player. He will wear the number 7 shirt, just like his father, and now has his first deal with the Reds, after playing for them several times in the past few months.
During the official unveiling, Ronaldo Jr. was seen posing with Gabriel, who already has a sponsorship deal with sportswear giant Nike. Both of them have a lot of potential in the world of football, and if Ronaldo Jr. works as hard as his father did, he could become a great footballer.
