Man United sign Cristiano Ronaldo’s son

Cristiano Ronaldo’s oldest son, Cristiano Jr, has officially signed for Manchester United.

The 11-year-old boy was signed by the Red Devils alongside Brazilian wonderkid, Gabriel.

Cristiano Jr, named after the Portuguese star, was pictured posing with Manchester United’s famous No7 shirt after agreeing to extend his stay in the club’s youth set up.

The Portuguese youngster is officially set to wear the iconic jersey which his father has made legendary.

This signing is coming barely a few days after Cristiano Jr was pictured training with his dad during the Premier League’s recent winter break.

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.
