According to information from Saudi Arabia, Al-Nassr are seriously considering including Cristiano Jr in their first team next season
After three unsuccessful seasons in Saudi Arabia, Cristiano Ronaldo may finally be on the verge of his maiden major trophy with Al-Nassr, as the popular Global One tops the Saudi Pro League table with an eight-point advantage over the second-placed Al Hilal, which have a match in hand.
CR7 and Co. are on an 18-game winning run and are looking absolutely ruthless.
If they indeed win the first title for Al-Nassr since 2019, Ronaldo will need significant help in the following campaign and the title-defence quest. And he may get an unexpected sidekick - none other than his son!
Namely, according to the Saudi Alweeam News, Al-Nassr are seriously considering including Cristiano Jr into their first team next season.
🚨 Al Nassr are considering to bring Cristiano Ronaldo Jr with the first team in training from next season.

He’s turning 16 in June and Al Nassr are closely monitoring his development + best options for his pathway.

The boy will be only 16 when the 2026/2027 campaign starts, but the club wants to exploit his reportedly immense talent and give him a chance on the biggest stage.
At the same time, this could be a wise move in Al-Nassr’s strategy to keep Ronaldo in Riyadh as long as possible, especially given the dissatisfaction the Portuguese openly expressed during the January Transfer Window.
The situation calmed and is currently ideal thanks to the team’s fantastic results, but the 41-year-old's deal still runs through June 2027.
Therefore, Al-Nassr’s management is thinking ahead, and Cristiano Jr could be the key factor in keeping CR7 in Riyadh.
