Will definitely be taller than Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, the eldest son of Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, is creating a stir with his debut for the Portuguese U15 team.

Like his father, Ronaldo Jr. plays as a left winger, wears the number 7 shirt, possesses impressive speed, and is impressively tall at the age of 14.

Specifically, Ronaldo Jr. is 1m83 tall, although he still has 1 month left until his 15th birthday. This is an extremely impressive height because the boy still has a lot of time to continue growing.

Compared to his father, Ronaldo Jr. is about 5cm taller when he was the same age. Currently, Ronaldo is 1m87 tall, so Ronaldo Jr. being 1m90 tall is completely within reach.

Of course, it is understandable that the next generation is taller than the previous generation with the rule of genetic inheritance. Ronaldo has never publicly revealed the biological mother of his eldest son. But Ronaldo Jr. certainly inherited some of his father's genes, plus a scientific training, nutrition and discipline regimen.

Similar diet to his father

Specifically, under the guidance of his father, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. applies a healthy diet, including:

Balanced diet: His diet includes protein-rich foods such as fish, lean meat, eggs, combined with green vegetables, fruits and whole grains.

Proper nutrition: He uses protein milk and multivitamins to support post-workout recovery and muscle growth.

Avoid unhealthy foods: Cristiano Jr. limits his consumption of sweets, sodas and fast food, following strict nutritional principles like his father.

After Cristiano Ronaldo moved to Al Nassr in late 2022, Cristiano Jr. joined Mahd Sports Academy in Riyadh, a leading sports academy in Saudi Arabia.

Here, he is often placed to compete and practice with players 2 years older than him. This is aimed at improving his physical strength, technique and tactical thinking ability, helping him develop more comprehensively.

More than 2 years ago, when Ronaldo joined Al Nassr, his eldest son only reached his shoulder. But in recent pictures, Ronaldo Jr. is almost as tall as his father.

Of course, Ronaldo Jr. does not yet possess the muscular mass and perfect body like his famous father. But at the age of U15, the boy still has a lot of time to perfect himself.

For now, reaching, or even soon surpassing, the height of "Ronaldo the father" is the first notable milestone in the career of "Ronaldo the son".
