Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., the 14-year-old son of football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, could be eligible to play for up to five different national teams, according to a report by 433.
The young footballer qualifies for multiple nations based on his birthplace, family heritage, and long-term residency in different countries. He is eligible to represent Portugal through his father’s nationality and the United States, where he was born.
Ronaldo Jr. also meets the criteria to play for Spain, having lived there for three years before the age of 10 during his father’s time at Real Madrid. His extended stay in England—over five years during Ronaldo’s stints at Manchester United—makes him eligible for the Three Lions. Additionally, he has the option to represent Cape Verde due to family ancestry.
With his developing talent and strong football lineage, Ronaldo Jr. could have a wide range of choices when it comes to his international career.
