Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo says he would love if it he son became a top footballer one day but will not force him into a career in the beautiful game.
In an interview with Chinese TV channel Zhejiang Satellite TV, the 31-year-old revealed his son, Cristiano Jr, loves kicking a ball around at home and even at the young age of five year old is already showing signs that he can one day be a top athlete.
Real’s all-time leading goalscorer said: “I want my son to be a player. I am a footballer and I want him to be one too. I think he has something of an athlete about him, he has athletic characteristics. Obviously he is very young, a baby, he’s only five but he loves football, that is a big plus.”
He revealed that his son is always playing with a ball at home but admitted he would not force Cristiano Jr into playing football if he doesn’t want to.
He continued: “I have 30 balls at home, he is always with the ball and he loves it. But I will not force him to be a player because it comes naturally, it has to be his choice.He will be whatever he wants to be, I am not going to push him at all.”
