Cristiano Jr. Officially Joins Manchester United

Manchester United has officially signed Cristiano Junior, the son of the team's Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, as reported by the player's partner Georgina Rodriguez. Georgina shared a photo on Instagram of herself with 11-year-old Cristiano Junior holding the number 7 shirt with the name "Ronaldo," in honor of his father. She wrote: "We strive to achieve our dreams together. Your mom loves you."

Cristiano Jr. signed the contract with the English club after spending several months playing at Manchester United's academy. Ronaldo often shares photos and videos of him training with his son, who has recently been seen wearing Manchester United training gear.

In 2020, Ronaldo was uncertain about his son pursuing a professional football career due to his unhealthy eating preferences at the age of ten. He previously stated: "We'll see if my son becomes a great football player. He hasn't gotten there yet. Sometimes he drinks Coca-Cola and Fanta and eats chips, and he knows that I don't like that." He added: "Sometimes I tell my son to dip in cold water to recover after running on the treadmill, but he says: 'Dad, it's too cold.'"
