Cristiano Ronaldo may not have been able to win a World Cup for his country last year, but it can’t impact his popularity. His son Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. too, is enjoying this popularity as he is in talks now, even before his career took a lift. Cristiano Ronaldo’s son might be playing for the Mexican national team due to his biological mother’s connection with the country. All these speculations sparked due to a documentary by Ronaldo’s present girlfriend with whom he has another two children. However, there is a mystery about her identity. Let’s dig into the matter further.
Who is the Mother of Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.?
Well, the actual identity of Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. mother is unknown to the world. As per reports, his original mother, Ronaldo’s first wife, could be a Mexican migrant. Ronaldo met her in California. As of now, that’s all to supplement this theory.
Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. has been spotted wearing the Mexican national team’s jersey in Georgina Rodriguez’s documentary ‘I Am Georgina.’ If he has any connection to Mexico due to his biological mother, there are probabilities that he can play for El Tri.
Ronaldo Jr and His Career
The Portuguese star’s son was born in California on June 17, 2010. His nickname is ‘Cristianinho,’ which means Little Cristiano.
The 12-year-old boy has already played for Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Juventus. He has already left an impression in football as a young player. He scored 58 goals for Juventus in 23 games and had 17 assists.
However, before Cristiano Ronaldo Jr chooses a national team to represent, he has a long way to go and enough time to decide.
Ronaldo’s son now plays for the Al-Nassr youth team, ensuring he follows his father’s footsteps to each new club.
Ronaldo son also plays a forward, and his skills in finding goal-scoring positions resemble his father’s as well.
Cristiano Ronaldo on His Son
The legendary Portuguese footballer wants his son to pursue his football career passionately. He shared that Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. is very much an athlete and always spends his time with balls at home. Ronaldo said he doesn’t want to force him to become an athlete and will do it only if it comes naturally.
Ronaldo said about his son ‘Cris’ that he’s adapting the game quite well, and it’s easier for him than his father. He added wittily that he wants his son to be like him, and Ronaldo Jr says he will become even better, which he can’t.
When it comes to advising his son, Ronaldo said that despite having dribbling skills and speed, the junior player has to be consistent, dedicated, and focused on the game to achieve success. And that isn’t only for football, but for anything he wants to do, added the superstar.
While the identity of Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. mother is publicly unknown, Ronaldo has full custody of his first son. Ronaldo Junior was brought up by his father and grandmother, Dolores. It seems like the boy hardly has a relationship with his mother.
About Cristiano Ronaldo
As we all know, Cristiano Ronaldo is a living legend in European and world football. He was the Portugal national team captain in UEFA Euro 2016 and UEFA Nations League 2019. He completed his 60th free kick recently and has a record of more than 800 goals in international and club football. However, he missed the opportunity to grab the FIFA World Cup in Qatar 2022, his last World Cup.
Ronaldo has four children other than Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., two of whom are from his partner Georgina Rodriguez. Ronaldo became father to Ronaldo Jr at the age of 25. Then, he had twins Mateo and Eva with the help of surrogacy in 2017. Ronaldo’s first child with Georgina came into their life in the same year, and her name is Alana Martina.
In 2022, Ronaldo and Georgina were expecting twins, but unfortunately, the baby boy passed away, and she gave birth to a baby girl.
Final Words
So, it will not be strange to see Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. representing the Mexican team in real life. As Mexico can’t boast of having more world-class players on their side than Portugal, he may easily get an entry if the connection is proven. And he may also emerge as a promising footballer, in the future, just like his father.
