Grandma Ronaldo hating on snr… this ain’t gonna end well.
Kasper as the other one said, then four players in the Norwegian National team are sons of former National team players:If anything I'd say the likelyhood of the son of a professional footballer making it is much higher that us regular folk making it. The amount of people that make it to the top leagues is already so tiny compared to the overall population, and considering a lot of active players today have fathers that played at the top level the percentage must be staggering in favour of the latter.
To add to the list:
Abedi Pelé with the Ayew brothers
Mazinho with Thiago and Rafinha
Danny Blind with Daley Blind
Patrick Kluivert with Justin Kluivert
Lillian Thuram with Marcus Thuram
Arnor Gudjohnsen with Eidur Gudjohnsen
Hamlet Mkhitaryan with Henrikh Mkhitaryan
Claudio Reyna with Gio Reyna
George Weah with Timothy Weah
Rory Delap with Liam Delap
Souleyman Sane with Leroy Sane
Possibly but will the son have the same level of desire to succeed and to be the best, I doubt it.
Apparently this Ronaldo is better than his dad according to his grandma.
Ronaldo Jr. is very talented and outstanding for his age, still a long long way to go though, but I always thought Ronaldo may wait for his son debut to retire. Assume his son could debut as early as age 17, that will be 6 years from now (Ronaldo would be 42)

I truly believe Ronaldo will end his career in Sporting.Ronaldo Jr. is very talented and outstanding for his age, still a long long way to go though, but I always thought Ronaldo may wait for his son debut to retire.

21-26 (age 36 to 41): Man Utd (assume he could manage to score around 30-40+ goals per seasons over the length of his current contract from 21-24, there's no reason for us not to extend his contract again on 1+1 until 26)
26-27 (age 41 to 42): Sporting? (will move back to Sporting for charity just to help his son, will retire after his son debut season who is about to turn age 17 by then)
From 00:35 - 00:42 you can see him pass the ball with one kick. What a great compilation that was.
Because that's what grandmas do. They love to talk about how useless you were as a kid with their grandkid.

No stepovers? I am starting to doubt his parentage or is he just being a rebellious teen?From 00:35 - 00:42 you can see him pass the ball with one kick. What a great compilation that was.
You're right. Aint no Ronaldo's son if he doesn't do 10 step overs before touching the ball. Wouldn't surprise me if he's actually closest to Juan Mata than Ronaldo type of player.No stepovers? I am starting to doubt his parentage or is he just being rebellious teen?
We’re not selling, pal. just kidding it will be storybook stuffI truly believe Ronaldo will end his career in Sporting.
For his mom for the club and because for his story and “PR” it would be perfect.
Would be a story book ending.
Maybe play a season with his son at Sporting as well.
Cesare won 4 serie A and a European cup. He was an extremely good Player as well.The Thurams, Kluiverts, just to add a couple.more names to the fray. Best duo for me has to be the Schmeichels though unless we're including Cesare Maldini's managerial achievements.
Frederico Chiesa son of Enrico Chiesa.If anything I'd say the likelyhood of the son of a professional footballer making it is much higher that us regular folk making it.

Im sure he was. But Peter Schmeichel is one of the best goalkeepers of all time, and his son has won the Prem and FA Cup not with AC Milan but Leicester! Nice run with his country in the Euros this summer too.Cesare won 4 serie A and a European cup. He was an extremely good Player as well.
Bringing the thread back to Ronaldo Jnr, I heard he scored a well taken goal at lunch time today - but was then threatened with detention for trying a rainbow flick when 3-1 up.
She actually said Jr is better than Ronaldo was at 11.

He's contracted now, can't leave just like that.Means nothing ultimately. As soon as Ronaldo leaves United his son will leave too.
His old man can pay the costs to get him out.He's contracted now, can't leave just like that.
He definitely can. You're never really tied down until you turn 17 and get your pro contract. The club who signs him might need to pay some compensation or something but I think it's minimal if so.He's contracted now, can't leave just like that.
Obertan Jr to eventually replace Ronaldo JrWho’s this Gabriel lad we’ve signed along with him? A Brazilian youngster?
DingoesWhatever happened to that Australian lad we signed when he was 2 months old?

That's him. Expect the lad will be reaching puberty soon.
