Recently, Ronaldo Jr., the eldest son of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, reached an impressive milestone on social media. Ronaldo Jr.’s personal Instagram account has reached over 1 million followers.
What draws attention is that the “kid” of the Ronaldo family is only 14 years old, and this is considered a rare “achievement” for someone who has not yet entered professional football. Another surprising fact is that Ronaldo Jr. only has one post on the platform, which further reinforces his undeniable appeal.
This milestone achieved by Ronaldo Jr. is, in part, attributed to the support of his father, Cristiano. To date, the Portuguese star is the most followed player on Instagram, with 635 million followers. This huge appeal helps CR7 earn around 3.2 million dollars for each advertising post on the social network, as reported by Hopper HQ.
Ronaldo Jr., son of the former Real Madrid player, currently lives with his five brothers, children of supermodel Georgina Rodriguez. Just like his father, Ronaldo Jr. shows passion and talent for football from an early age. He has already joined the youth teams of several renowned clubs, including the youth teams of Manchester United and Juventus when CR7 played for those clubs. In early 2023, the 14-year-old followed in his father’s footsteps to the Middle East and joined Al-Nassr’s youth team.
Despite his young age, Ronaldo Jr. has already shown great potential in his football career and received many expectations from fans. Furthermore, he often appears alongside his father at major events, creating an image of a united and caring family.
With his displays at youth level, Ronaldo Jr. is expected to continue his father Cristiano’s brilliant career, and who knows, in the near future, fans may see the father-son duo playing together at club level or even with the Portugal national team shirt.
Sharing on his social network, Cristiano Ronaldo sent a congratulatory message to his son: “Congratulations, my son! Continue to work hard and follow your dreams. Proud of you!”
