Cristiano Ronaldo’s son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, has been called up to play for Portugal’s Under-15 national team for the first time.
The 14-year-old earned his spot after impressing at the Al-Nassr academy in Saudi Arabia, where he currently plays alongside his father.
The news has sparked hopes from fans that father and son could one day play together for Portugal. Ronaldo, who is now 40 years old, still plays professionally and is showing no signs of slowing down.
The Portuguese football legend reacted proudly to his son’s selection, posting on Instagram: “I’m proud of you, son.”
Ronaldo has spoken before about the possibility of playing alongside his son, saying: “I would like it, I would like it. It’s not something that keeps me up at night, but I would like it. We’ll see. It’s more in his hands than in mine.”
