FC Bayern are being linked with Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. The son of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is apparently planning his next move to Europe
A spectacular transfer rumor is currently attracting international attention. According to the English newspaper The Sun, FC Bayern is also interested in Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, the eldest son of world star Cristiano Ronaldo
The 15-year-old is currently under contract with Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, but is said to be planning the next step in his career this summer. According to the report, Ronaldo Jr. would like to play in a major European youth academy in the future
In addition to several of his famous father’s former clubs, FC Bayern has also been mentioned, with Real Madrid, Sporting Lisbon, Juventus Turin, Manchester United – and Munich – among those said to be interested in the talent
FC Bayern apparently among the interested parties
Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. is considered to be versatile in attack and can play in both wing positions. Like his father, he also regularly provides a goal threat
The youngster has already played six international matches for Portugal’s U16 national team, scoring one goal in the process. Ronaldo Jr. was previously trained in the youth departments of Manchester United and Juventus, among others
Real Madrid in particular appear to be keeping a close eye on his development. According to the report, the attacking player already completed a trial training session with the Whites in March
FC Bayern is now also being mentioned as a possible interested party, although no official talks or concrete negotiations are known to date
BVB apparently waves goodbye
Borussia Dortmund have also been linked with Ronaldo Jr. recently, but according to BILD, the Portuguese superstar’s son is currently not on BVB’s radar
According to the report, such a transfer would not fit in with Dortmund’s strategy, with the enormous media attention surrounding Ronaldo’s name apparently being viewed critically by those responsible
FC Bayern, on the other hand, has been consistently pursuing the path of tying top international talent to the club at an early stage for years.
