Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has addressed the idea of sharing the pitch with his son, Cristiano Jr., in a professional football match. The 39-year-old icon discussed the possibility during an interview on his YouTube channel, UR Cristiano, with popular YouTuber MrBeast.
MrBeast, whose real name is James Donaldson, brought up the scenario while drawing a comparison to basketball legend LeBron James, who is also 39 and currently playing for the LA Lakers alongside his 20-year-old son, Bronny.
“It’s crazy how LeBron is now playing with his son. Are you going to make that happen in the football world?” MrBeast asked.
Ronaldo, a proud father to 14-year-old Cristiano Jr., replied, “Maybe, I’ll see. He is fourteen now.”
The conversation continued as MrBeast playfully suggested, “Maybe get him to play when he’s 17, so you’d have to play for three more years.”
Ronaldo responded with a smile, “Let’s see, let’s see how my legs are doing, we’ll see.”
The idea of father and son sharing the field has sparked excitement among fans, who would love to see the legendary footballer pass the torch to his son on the professional stage.
