Cristiano Ronaldo's 11-year-old son Cristiano Jr joins Man Utd academy

Manchester United have snapped up 11-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, signing the son of the Portugal striker to his first official contract.

Cristiano Jr was part of the Juventus academy but moved to England when the elder Ronaldo sealed an emotional return to United last summer, and he has been training with the Red Devils' youth setup ever since.

Just over six months later, United have seen enough to convince them that Cristiano Jr should be kept around on a long-term basis and Ronaldo's partner, Georgina Rodriguez, confirmed on Instagram that the 11-year-old has agreed a deal.
