Ronaldo had captioned the pictures “present and future”.
The 11-year-old Cristiano Jr had in the past played for Real Madrid and Juventus youth teams.
Manchester United signed Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus during last summer’s transfer window for a reported fee of €15.00 million.
The five-time Ballon D’Or winner has so far scored 14 goals in 26 appearances for the Red Devils.
Meanwhile, Ronaldo had yet to comment on his son’s new contract at Old Trafford and the youngster doesn’t have his own social media account.
Ronaldo’s partner, Georgina Rodriguez, however, took to her Instagram page to post a picture of Cristiano Jr holding a Manchester United No. 7 shirt.
The 37-year-old Portuguese has four children with his partner, Georgina Rodriguez.
