Cristiano Ronaldo's son only joined the Juventus academy towards the end of August, and it looks like the talented youngster is already making a real statement in the youth ranks.
Back in September, the 8-year-old bagged four goals on his Juventus U9 debut against Lucento, while wearing the iconic number seven shirt...talking about living up to the family name.
It's not that long ago that his father predicted big things for Cristiano Jr.'s football career, saying, "Cristiano Junior is very competitive. He is like me when I was a kid. He doesn't like to lose. He will become like me, I'm 100% sure."

And now the kid is winning trophies like his dad. Is this a sign of things to come?
Ronaldo posted a 'congratulations' message on social media earlier, as his son posed next to a trophy.
The 8-year-old has shown glimpses of individual brilliance throughout his time in Turin, and on this occasion, he was sporting the number 11 jersey.

Fed down the right flank, Cristiano Jr destroyed the defender by chopping back inside like his dad, before ruining the goalkeeper and slotting home with his left-foot.
All his teammates shout "Cris!" to try and get him to pass but he's not having any of it and scores a sublime solo goal anyway.
Like father, like son.
Ronaldo himself was actually questioned about the potential of his son in an interview via Tarek Khatib and admitted he also likes to feel the pressure.

"Yes, he also plays for Juventus, and feels the pressure and likes it.
"Sometimes he asks me: can I bring 2 Italian friends home? I tell him yes, then he says: but you must be here because they want to take a picture (laughs)."
Remember the name.
