Supposedly, Cristiano has an agreement with the mother of his first son, such that her identity cannot be publicly disclosed and the 39-year-old has full custody of his son.

The GOAT genetics: Will Cristiano Ronaldo Jr Be as Tall as His Father?

That said, the recent comparisons and discoveries have led to the comparison between Cristiano Ronaldo himself and his son. For those who remember, Cristiano was a frail young talent at Sporting who found his feet at Manchester United in one of the most physically demanding leagues in the world. Over time, Cristiano worked on his size and figure, which ultimately led him to become the towering presence we witnessed at Real Madrid, Juventus, and now at Al-Nasser. 

With Cristiano currently 6 feet 2 inches or 1.87 meters, many believe that Ronaldo Jr. is well on his way to eclipsing the global footballing icon in a few year’s time. Speaking about his son on Saudi Pro League: Kickoff, the 39-year-old said, “When I was his age, he is a little bit bigger and stronger. I was smaller. I think he will be bigger than me.”

Therefore, with his father overseeing his nutrition, eating habits, fitness and coaching to some great results already. It is expected that it will continue into the future. Interestingly, the former Real Madrid star is quite eager to see his son succeed and supersede his own legacy when the time comes.

Cristiano Ronaldo Jr’s Athletic Potential

For the most part, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr is already a physical specimen at the ripe age of 14. Owing to his height and size, it is clear that he towers over other players his age. That said, there is limited footage of the youngster who has been playing for youth sides in Real Madrid, Juventus, Manchester United, and now Al-Nassr. In whatever footballing activity he can be seen, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr expresses similar attributes to his father, when he was still a young and pacy winger.

As such, Ronaldo Jr shows a keen eye for goal and the technical skill required to dribble effortlessly past several players. He has scored plenty of goals for Al Nassr’s Under-14 side. Additionally, Cristiano Jr has shown great ball-striking ability from dead-ball situations, a speciality that a younger Cristiano wowed audiences with during his time at Manchester United and Real Madrid.

All in all, the only concern for the Al-Nassr star is about keeping his son motivated mentally and having the hunger to work towards being the best in the world, in spite of being born into generational wealth and having the means to get anything and everything with a snap of his fingers. That said, CR7 remains optimistic that he can guide his son to reach the greatest of heights in due time.
