Cristiano Ronaldo Jr Set To Join Saudi Arabia Academy
Cristiano Junior, the son of Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, is set to join the Mahd Academy in Saudi Arabia.
WHAT HAPPENED? After leaving Manchester United by mutual consent in November, the elder Ronaldo recently signed for Saudi side Al-Nassr in a deal reportedly worth $75m (£61.1m) per year. His 12-year-old son has left United too and will now play at the academy level in the Middle Eastern country.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Ronaldo Jr spent two years in Juventus’ academy system while his father was playing in Italy, and most recently wore the No. 7 shirt as a prospect with Man United. He also featured in the Real Madrid youth team.
WHAT’S NEXT FOR RONALDO? While it remains unclear as to when exactly Ronaldo Jr will start playing for his new side, his father could be in action when the Saudi All-Star team take on Paris Saint-Germain in a friendly on January 19.
WHAT WAS PREVIOUSLY SAID: It was previously reported that Ronaldo Jr had rejoined Real Madrid following his father’s departure from Manchester United. During that period, his father was at Los Blancos where he was training in order to remain in shape before he signed for Al Nassr of Saudi Arabia on Friday in a deal believed to be worth more than 200 million euros.
