Fifteen-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. has received his first call-up to the Portugal under-16 national team.
Currently playing for Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr, where his father is a star player, he is part of a 22-player squad set to compete in the Federations Cup Tournament in Turkey.
The tournament will take place from October 30 to November 4 and will feature matches against teams from Turkey, Wales, and England.
This selection follows his earlier call-up to the under-15 squad in May, furthering the possibility of him eventually playing alongside his father.
In addition to his current club, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. has previously been a part of the youth systems at Juventus and Manchester United, both of which his father represented before joining the Saudi Pro League in December 2022.
Ronaldo, who debuted with the under-15s back in 2001, holds the records for the most caps (223) and goals (143) for Portugal, both of which are world records in men’s international football.
