Cristiano Ronaldo's son receives first call-up to the Portugal U-17 national team
Cristiano Junior, the eldest child of five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo, has been included in the Portugal U-17 national team squad for the first time. He made the list of players who will participate in the first round of the 2027 European Championship qualifiers.
The Portugal youth team's training camp will be held on November 6–17. In the first round of qualifying, the Portuguese players will face the national teams of Andorra, Bulgaria, and Serbia.
Earlier, reports circulated in the media that the failure to call up Cristiano Junior to the youth national team was one of the factors that led to his father leaving the Portugal national team training camp at the end of September.
For information, Cristiano Junior was born in June 2010. He plays as a forward for the youth team of Saudi Arabia's Al-Nassr. Meanwhile, his 41-year-old father, Cristiano Ronaldo, plays for the club's senior team.
