Cristiano Ronaldo's son set for stunning move after being spotted in training

Cristiano Ronaldo Jr is reportedly preparing to make the first massive move of his football career as he's been spotted training with a top European side.

Throughout the history of football there have been plenty of famous football father-son duos, including Cesare and Paolo Maldini, Peter and Kasper Schmeichel, and Alfie and Erling Haaland

Therefore when any big player reveals that their son is trying to follow in their footsteps, fans pay attention.

Of course, that is perhaps the case for Cristiano Ronaldo more than any other player in the history of the sport, especially after several reports claimed that Ronaldo Jr is a talented player.

And now, it appears that the 15-year-old could be about to sign for his first European club, and it would be some move.

According to a report from The Athletic, Ronaldo Jr, Cristiano's eldest son, trained with Real Madrid’s academy on Tuesday, playing with the under-16 side ahead of a potential move.

Currently, the teenager plays as a striker and is a part of the academy of Saudi Pro League team Al Nassr, the same club that his dad is under contract with until next year.

Before joining Al Nassr, Ronaldo Jr played in the youth setups of both Manchester United and Juventus, again mirroring his father's career.

As it stands, it is unclear if Ronaldo Sr would travel with his son if he were to join Real Madrid.

Regardless, having a Ronaldo back in the ranks at Real Madrid, where Cristiano is the all-time leading goalscorer with 450 goals in 438 appearances, would no doubt be massively exciting for fans.

According to Spanish outlet AS, for now, Ronaldo Jr has taken part in just two sessions with Real Madrid’s academy, with more to come in the future after he made a 'perfect' first impression.

However, Real Madrid are not the only club believed to be monitoring the young talent, with several other top European sides said to be tracking his progress.

The sessions come after Ronaldo Jr received his first International call-up for Portugal last year, despite being born in the United States.

He made his debut for the under-15 side against Japan in the Vlatko Markovic International Tournament and has also played at the under-17 level.
