In a video which went out on Monday, December 9 on Ronaldo’s YouTube channnel, MrBeast asked Cristiano Ronaldo Jr if there is a possibility of playing and recreating the father-son duo just like how basketball legend LeBron James and Bronny James did. To this, Jr quickly replied, “Inshallah (God willing)”. However, Junior’s response came in Arabic, Ronaldo was quick to translate, as he said, “Hopefully.”

Notably, if Ronaldo and his son feature in a competitive football match in near future, it will not be the first time. In October 2024, LeBron James and Bronny James became the first father-son duo to play in the NBA together in Los Angeles. The LA Lakers star player had dreamt of playing with his son. Moreover, Ronaldo has also expressed interest to play alongside his eldest son.
