Manchester United top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo appears to have had a quick answer to his worries about whether his son will continue to train with him now that the Red Devils academy player has turned 12.
The Portugal captain marked Cristiano Jr's birthday by asking if they would still carry out their training sessions on June 17 — a fear dispelled by their latest pictures together.
Posting on Instagram stories, Ronaldo used the most followed account in the world to share snaps of his son trading a pass with him and sitting on a ball tying up his boot laces.
On a day when many Premier League players returned for pre-season training, the pair trained on a neat grass pitch and Ronaldo ran through slalom poles while wearing a characteristic look of exertion and focus.
Ronaldo Jr had played for Juventus's academy before his superstar father made his shock return to Old Trafford from the Italian club at the end of the 2021 summer transfer window.
Less than six months later, the precocious forward, who was born in San Diego in 2010, followed in Ronaldo's footsteps by signing his first professional deal when he joined United's academy.

Ronaldo's partner, Georgina Rodriguez, joined Ronaldo Jr at his official unveiling by the club he had already turned out for in several matches after the family moved to Manchester.
Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Ronaldo has said he will not pressure his son to become a footballer, pledging to support him in whatever he chooses to do.
The youngster kept Ronaldo company in a garden kickabout while the Portugal captain was observing self-isolation away from the Juve squad after contracting Covid in 2020.
