Ronaldo's Son Makes Portugal Debut, Man Utd 'Interested'

Ronaldo's Son Makes Portugal Debut, Man Utd 'Interested'

Manchester United are reportedly monitoring Cristiano Ronaldo Junior's progress.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s son recently made his debut for the Portuguese national team, and now some clubs are reportedly interested in signing the youngster.

The 14-year-old made his first appearance for the under-15 A Seleção side during their 4-1 victory over Japan at the Vlatko Markovic tournament. 

Ronaldo Junior came on in the 53rd minute of the tie for Abdu Cassama, and The Sun has claimed that scouts from Manchester United were present at the clash as they look to keep tabs on the son of one of their icons. 

The teenager was part of the club’s academy structures when his father rejoined the team back in 2021, but with the Red Devils present at the tournament in Croatia, they will use his appearances for the European giants to supplement their scouting reports.

It is, however, also understood that United are not the only Premier League club present at the competition, as fellow English side and UEFA Europa League finalists Tottenham Hotspur were also in attendance. 

Croatian newspaper Sportske Novosti has stated that the likes of Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, Hoffenheim, Red Bull Salzburg, Inter Milan, Juventus and Atalanta were also represented.

Ronaldo Junior has always played at the youth sides of whichever club his father is at, so he is currently in Saudi Arabia with Al Nassr. However, a good showing at the youth spectacle could see him make a prompt return to Europe to further improve his development as he continues in the footsteps of his father.
