Cristiano Ronaldo opens up on life with his five children, who ALL ‘have my personality’, don’t speak to him for days if they lose at padel… and why he won’t put pressure on Cristiano Jr to be a footballer
Cristiano Ronaldo has opened up about his family life outside of football and how his competitive edge has been passed on to his children.
The Portugal legend is well-known for his motivation to break records within football, even at the age of 39.
Just last week, Ronaldo became the first player in football history to score 900 career goals as he found the net for Portugal against Croatia.
And when speaking to his former Manchester United team-mate Rio Ferdinand, the relentless goalscorer revealed that his competitiveness has spread to activities with his five children.
‘I was in the Red Sea a couple of days ago, I play every day padel. Me and Cristiano Jr get mad, we don’t speak for like two days,’ he told the Rio Ferdinand Presents podcast.
