Footage of Cristiano Ronaldo Jr recreating his father's iconic celebration has emerged as the 11-year-old scored for Manchester United's Under-12s in their recent tournament victory over CEF Girones-Sabat.
Cristiano Jr also played for the Juventus youth team while his father played at the Italian club, but then began training with the Red Devils in September of 2021, shortly after his father's remarkable homecoming transfer to Man Utd, but didn’t make his debut till February 2022.
Nonetheless, Cristiano Jr was selected to represent Man Utd in the MIC Cup only two months after making his debut. Kai Rooney and Shola Shoretire’s younger brother Tunde were also amongst the youngsters who travelled to Spain.
