Snag that Bonus
Cristiano Ronaldo's kiddo, a promising footballer of 14, secures his first call-up to the Portuguese U-15 national team! This next-gen striker is set to represent his nation at an international tournament in sunny Croatia, where he'll be goin' head-to-head with squads from England, Japan, and Greece.
This swift invitation marks Ronaldo Jr.'s debut on the national scene. At the moment, he rocks it in the academy of Saudi club "Al-Nassr," where his old man, Cristiano Sr., also shines on the pitch.
Prior to this, Ronaldo Jr. honed his skills at the academies of Spanish powerhouses "Real Madrid," "Juventus," and "Poso Huesca." With his outstanding showings and knack for puttin' the ball in the net, he's been making waves and attractin' attention industrywide—traits that seem to have been handed down from his pops.
Cristiano Sr., as you prob'ly know, joined "Al-Nassr" at the start of 2023. Throughout his illustrious career, he's bagged the top scorer title for "Manchester United," "Real Madrid," and "Juventus," and scooped up the prestigious Ballon d'Or five times. His move to Saudi Arabia kicked off a fresh chapter in his career and opened up new opportunities for Ronaldo Jr. to develop in a top-notch football environment.
The call-up to the Portugal U-15 team is a massive leap forward for Ronaldo Jr.'s journey as a professional footballer. Up next is his first international test and the chance to exhibit his skills in a national team setting.

Bookmakers are predicting that Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., who is now representing Portugal U-15 at the international tournament in Croatia, could follow in his father's footsteps and become a top footballer. Al-Nassr, the Saudi club where the senior Ronaldo also plays, is seen as the ideal football environment for the youngster to develop his traits. With the elder Ronaldo having won the Ballon d'Or five times and scored the most for Man United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, there's already a strong family resemblance in their footballing careers. The question on bookmakers' minds is whether Ronaldo Jr. can match his father's success in the sport.
