CRISTIANO RONALDO is the world’s most marketable footballer.
The former Manchester United forward joined Serie A side Juventus from Real Madrid for £88million in the summer of 2018 – and is also a proud father.

How many children does Cristiano Ronaldo have?
Cristiano Ronaldo has four children.
His first son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, 9, is currently starring for Juventus’ youth squads and is already impressing with his goal return.
Cristiano Jr was born on June 17, 2010 in the United States.
But he was immediately taken back to Madrid by Dolores to start his life in Spain with his father.
Cristiano Jr’s family nickname is Cristianinho, which means “little Cristiano”.

And the Portugal captain announced in June 2017 that he had fathered twins via a surrogate mother in the United States.
Ronaldo remained with the national team during their Confederations Cup campaign, only announcing the birth of Eva and Matteo after Portugal’s penalty shootout loss to Chile.
Ronaldo confirmed in an interview on July 18, 2017, that he and Spanish girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez were expecting their first baby together.

When asked by Spanish news outlet El Mundo whether the player was “happy” to have another child on the way, he replied: “Yes, very much.”
Georgina gave birth to baby daughter Alana Martina on November 12, 2017.
Ronaldo posted a picture on Instagram, writing: “Alana Martina is just born! Both Geo and Alana are doing great! We are all very happy!'”
And it looks like Ronaldo’s sons have inherited his footballing talent – with his toddlers showing off their skills over the summer break in the garden.
In May 2020, it was revealed that Ronaldo could have his fifth child on the way after girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez hinted she is pregnant with a cryptic message.
The 26-year-old model took to social media just before taking off to leave Madeira after almost two months in quarantine and return to Italy.

Who is Cristiano Jr’s mother?
The identity of Cristiano Junior’s mother is unknown, but Ronaldo Senior has full custody of his son with reports suggesting that his mother was paid £10million.
Ronaldo told chat show host Jonathan Ross: “People speculate I was with this girl or another, or there was a surrogate mother. I have never told anyone and never will.
“When Cristiano [Junior] is going to grow up, I am always going to say the truth to him because he deserves it, because he is my son, but I am not going to say because people want me to say.”
