In the final stretch of the season, Al Nassr is studying a decision that could mark an unprecedented event: the possible inclusion of Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. in first-team training starting next season.
As reported from Saudi Arabia, the club is considering integrating Cristiano Ronaldo's eldest son, 15, who will turn 16 in June, into some internships with the professional squad as part of its training process. The idea does not imply a definitive promotion, but rather a progressive adaptation to the pace and demand of elite football
.
Within the institution, they value their evolution in the youth divisions and consider that contact with more experienced players may be key to their development. The plan contemplates that he begins to alternate sessions with the older team, while they continue to evaluate their physical growth, performance and ability
to adapt. Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. could be part of Al-Nassr's first team training
The project also has a strong symbolic and media impact, since, if it were to happen, Cristiano Ronaldo could share training with his son, something unusual in professional football. A recent precedent occurred in the NBA, where LeBron James met his son Bronny in
the Los Angeles Lakers.
Cristiano Jr. has already had some minor steps in clubs such as Juventus and Manchester United, following his father's path, and he is also part of Al Nassr's training structure. In addition, he was called up for Portugal's youth teams and is considered a forward with power, speed and
scoring ability.
Some time ago, Cristiano Ronaldo himself had left the possibility open: “I would like to play with my son, but we'll see, it depends more on me than on him”. The Portuguese player, who is also chasing the 1,000-goal mark in his career (he currently has 969), finds in this scenario an extra motivation to extend
his career.
As the club defines the next steps, the possibility of seeing them share the field or training sessions begins to take shape, in what could become one of the most striking stories in world football.
